Note: This listing is for males only. Coloration and patterning on all specimens is variable and unique. Some very minor scratches on the elytra of these wild caught beetles should be expected. Size of males is typically about 50 millimeters, give or take 5 mm but we presently only have specimens closer to 40 mm and they are considered minor males. They still look like smaller versions of what is in the photo. Larger specimens may be available at a higher cost. Please inquire, if interested.
