Hay 7000 especies de escarabajos Scarabaeinae que se pueden dividir en cuatro gremios funcionales. El objetivo de este trabajo fue describir la comunidad Scarabaeinae, sus gremios funcionales y su fluctuación a lo largo del año en dos sitios de la Reserva Natural Vale, municipio de Linhares, estado de Espírito Santo, Brasil. Los muestreos se realizaron mensualmente, de junio de 2012 a enero de 2013, con trampas pitfall expuestas durante 48 horas con heces humanas y cebos de cerdo podridos. Se realizaron comparaciones entre las áreas mediante análisis de abundancia y riqueza de especies, además de relacionar los gremios de alimentación y anidación de las especies capturadas. Se recolectaron un total de 9039 ejemplares, distribuidos en 16 géneros y 34 especies. Las especies más abundantes fueron Dichotomius (Selenocopris) irinus (Harold, 1867) con 34,5%, Aphengium cupreum Shipp, 1897 con 24,5% y Canthon (Peltecanthon) staigi (Pereira, 1953) con 21,3%. Se registraron nueve especies en todas las muestras, con un 88% del total de especies capturadas durante el estudio. Dos de las tres especies más abundantes, D. irinus y A. cupreum, fueron dominantes en la estación seca. C. staigi fue la más abundante en época de lluvias. La trampa de heces humanas fue la más efectiva. En relación al gremio trófico, la mayoría de las especies fueron consideradas especialistas. En cuanto al comportamiento de anidación, la mayoría son paracopridos, patrón estándar de la región Neotropical .
