Beenderknagers (Trogidae) zijn een familie uit de orde van de kevers (Coleoptera). Het zijn aaseters die worden aangetroffen onder dierenkadavers; soms ook in nesten van vogels of zoogdieren, of in grotten tussen de mesthopen van vleermuizen. Ze eten veren, huid en vacht.

Het zijn dofgekleurde, bruine tot zwarte kevers, met een convex lichaam en een klein hoofd. De dekschilden vertonen typische bobbels of oneffenheden die een hulpmiddel zijn voor de determinatie.
