Abstract：Analysis of gene sequences is an important approach to revealing the phylogenetic relationships of the
Scarabaeoidea． Here we summarize the mitochondrial and nuclear gene sequences of 13 families of the Scarabaeoidea．
Advances in gene sequences ( COⅠ，16S rRNA，28S rRNA，18S rRNA，etc． ) and their application to the molecular
systematics of Scarabaeoidea are reviewed． The application of these sequences in species’identification and classification，
the discovery of cryptic species and the phylogenetic analysis of the Scarabaeoidea are discussed． Developmental trends in
the molecular systematics of the Scarabaeoidea are summarized in order to provide a basis for further recovering the
phylogenetic dynamics of this group．
