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):
