Alex Shaffer 0 Report post Posted January 30 Does anyone here have knowledge on how heavy approximately megasoma sleeperi/punctulatus L3 larvae become before pupation? What's the max weight i should be expecting? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PowerHobo 0 Report post Posted January 30 I don't know the maximum size of this species, but I do know it's pretty variable. It'll be easy to tell when they're preparing to pupate just due to color and wrinkly appearance. From my understanding a 10% loss is pretty typical of most US scarabaeidae.
