Ratmosphere Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 Any possible way Lucanus elaphus could be found in CT? It's found in most of the eastern states! However, they are pretty hard to find regardless. Let me know your opinions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beetle Collector Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 I wouldn't think so, you'd have to go further south down to North Carolina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ratmosphere Posted May 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 By any chance, did you submerge your logs in water for a few hours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beetle Collector Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 No I didn't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratmosphere Posted May 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 Next time, try that but make sure it's not soaked. White beech might work, it worked for my Phalacrognathus muelleri females. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
