Beet&Stag Buster Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 I would like to go exploring one of these days into some of the forests in the area to find beetles. The species I'm mainly on the lookout for are Lucanini and Dynastini. What other types of larva are found in rotting logs in the US? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hisserdude Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 There are quite a few darkling beetles that can be found under the bark of dead trees, Coelocnemis, Ipthiminus, Alobates, etc. There are also various fungus beetles that are usually found near rotten wood, you could also find some rove beetles, basically there are a lot of beetles found in rotten wood.
