Abstract
Five new species of the scarabaeine dung beetle genus Onthophagus Latreille 1802, are described in the Onthophagus posticus-group, from Queensland and New South Wales, Australia: O. dryander sp. nov., O. leichhardti sp. nov., O. murgon sp. nov., O. penedwardsae sp. nov. and O. toopi sp. nov. New distribution information is given for the other members the species group and the ranges of all species are mapped. A revised key is given to the twelve species now known in the species group.
