ITIS has the subfamily Bolboceratinae under Geotrupidae instead of the family Bolboceratidae. It looks like Bolboceratinae has been promoted to family rank, at least as far as Catalogue of Life is concerned. user:Dyanega has changed some articles to use the family Bolboceratidae, so I went ahead and made that change here, adding this family page as Bolboceratinae's parent. I'm not sure which way it should go. The two DOI references for this page leave Bolboceratinae as a subfamily under Geotrupidae, as the ITIS link did.
