Phanaeus triangularis, the black phanaeus, is a North American species of true dung beetle in the family Scarabaeidae.

[2][3][4] It is found in the eastern half of the United States.

[5] Three subspecies of Phanaeus triangularis are sometimes recognized,[2][3] but niger is often considered a synonym of triangularis and texensis (from Texas and adjacent regions) is often considered a separate species.
