Lucanus Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Wow! Impressive! Species is Chalcosoma chiron (caucasus) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mashku Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Yes its a Chalcosoma caucasus, you can ID it on the smal denticle on the cephalic horn. C. atlas has none and C. moellenkampi has more smaller more closely thorax horns.
