Dynastes tityus
It was dead, but worth noting.
Anyone know where to get some framed large beetles? Or a frame or dome for this one?
If you like insects, then these are great for a framed display. Mainly because they look impressive. Nice specimen! I found one a week ago, but I think it had been hit by a car. It was a male like yours, but most of the horn was missing. Also, there was a visible crack in the pronotum. Great find though!
It looks like some sort of Dynastes Beetle, maybe Dynastes granti or Dynastes tityus
