Please correct the authority by adding brackets around it: (Klug, 1855)
I used biolib for reference but it was brought to my attention by Wikispecies editor "Korg" that the species was first described by Klug as Copris platycera :
https://biodiversitylibrary.org/page/33195223
At the time already indicated as belonging to the subgenus Catharsius but described as Copris platycera nevertheless
Schoolmeesters also has it as (Klug, 1855):
