Not about beetles, but earlier this year, I got this extremely comprehensive book from Japan about the natural history of Birdwing butterflies, by Hirotaka Matsuka -

I've never before seen such a complete treatment of the subject - the amount of work involved in producing it must have been incredible.  It even includes photos of the caterpillars and chrysalises.
