Jordan Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 Hello everyone, Found some larvae today while digging through a rotten log. Can anyone give me an idea what it is? From other pictures I've seen Im guessing Lucanus but I'm a really unsure about that? Is there anyone who can pin point a specific species? Thanks a lot, Jordan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucanus Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 Did you find them in pine wood? They look like Ceruchus sp. to me. Definately not Lucanus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Posted February 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 Do these beetles seem right? I found a few of them in the wood even though it's not really what I was hoping the larvae would be. I'm pretty sure it was oak though.

Lucanus Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 Yes! They are Ceruchus sp. Looks like C. piceus to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Minard Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 I agree with Lucanus, on it being Ceruchus all the way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
