Absolutely amazing! Just after finding a live female, I've stumbled across a recent dead female S. antaeus, measures 28 mm long. I've yet to find males, but they must be around here somewhere! If anyone is interested in her, don't hesitate to send me a PM!

Trying to figure out what he is exactly. My mother came running all the way down the street just to get me to catch it! Almost 30 mm long and he's a very pretty brown color!

Poor little guy passed away while I was away for the weekend. I was just going to bury him outside but I wanted to ask if anyone was interested in the specimen. He measures approximately 30 mm long. Let me know!

I just wanted to make sure the first one I found is male. I thought I saw the last abdominal segment stick out more at some point... thought it was female. The second individual I caught is definitely male after some comparison on bugguide.net. These are pictures of the first individual...

Found this little guy outside my window high up near the gutter. I thought it might be a stag, but his antenna doesn't look like one's. Seems like he was in a fight since he only has one. What kind of enclosure would be best?

Just got back home from a 7 hour drive to and from northwestern Georgia. I was very excited to find some cool insects. It wasn't exactly a vacation though, so we didn't have a whole lot of free time to go out to some nice parks. As a new beetle enthusiast, my top priority was looking for adults...
