Hisserdude Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 One of the larger US Eleodes species, and certainly the largest here in Idaho. Finally got larvae from this species, after having failed previously back in 2014, so hopefully I can rear said larvae up to maturity with little issue! 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hisserdude Posted August 6, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2020 Got tons of larvae now, these guys can be pretty prolific, now here's hoping they'll be easy to pupate... 😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuckRambo Posted April 3, 2021 Report Share Posted April 3, 2021 How will you go about the process. Do they have to be at a certain temp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hisserdude Posted June 15, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 Unfortunately, seems this northern strain requires a diapause for the larvae to develop properly and pupate correctly, I did not think to provide them with one until it was too late, and they all died... One thing to note is that the larvae of this species also get super cannibalistic and territorial as they get larger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
