Markelangelo Posted August 21, 2013 Report Share Posted August 21, 2013 Does anyone around here know what beetles or other neat insects I can find in Utah, Salt Lake/Provo area around this time of the year? I used to live in California so I don't know exactly what is out here! Also, what is the best method to find the little critters? My favourites are the larger beetles, I have some D granti and a tiger beetle right now, and I would love to add to my collection! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Clausen Posted October 7, 2013 Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 Dynastes granti is supposedly found in the southern part of the state, though it's a bit too late to look now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
