%X The following species of Paradoxiphis Berlese associated with Australian Bolboceratini (Scarabaeidae : Geotrupinae) are described and figured: rotundus. sp. nov., dimorphus. sp. nov., black- bolbi, sp. nov., gigas, sp. nov., circumsetosus. sp. nov., longisetosus, sp. nov., bolboceras (Womersley), comb. nov., armstrongi (Womersley), comb. nov., longanalis, sp. nov., tenuibrachiatus Berlese, brevisetosus, sp. nov., womersleyi, sp. nov., matthewsi, sp. nov., brevisternum, sp. nov. and waterhousei. sp. nov. Schizolaelaps Womersley is synonymized under Paradoxiphis. Species of Paradoxihis are apparently host-specific at the generic level: rotundus and dimorphis with Bolboleaus Howden &amp; Cooper; blackbolbi and gigas with Blackbolbus Howden &amp; Cooper; circumsetosus, longisetosus, bolboceras and arnzstrongi with Elephastomus Macleay; longanalis, tenuibrachiatus and brevisetosus with Blackburnium Boucomont; and womersleyi, matthewsi, brevisternum and waterhousei with Bolborhachium Boucomont.
