Peter Clausen Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 I've collected D. granti in Arizona on two occasions, but I'd like to hear some collecting experiences of people who have found Dynastes tityus. For example, if you find one beetle in a particular area are you likely to be able to find a few more that same night, or is it pretty hit and miss? Also, are there some dependable states or cities/towns where a person could collect D. tityus? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beetle-Experience Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 We find them pretty regularly near Alexandria, LA. We have a few spots where we can find at least one every time we check. I have found a few further south but very rarely. Steven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zonbonzovi Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 The only D. tityus I've ever found was in Kingsland, GA. My uncle swears that he sees them in numbers just N. of Jax, FL at the commercial fish sorting plant he works in(although he has yet to send any photos). July - August.
