Bolboceratidae, the dor beetles, is a family of beetle. It was historically treated as a subfamily of the earth-boring dung beetles, but has been considered a separate family since 1995. Some recent classifications have persisted in treating bolboceratids as a subfamily (e.g.) but these classifications are contradicted by recent phylogenetic studies of relationships indicating that bolboceratids are not closely related to geotrupids.
