Common Stag Beetle

Lucanus cervus

Description:

Large Black Beetle seen in Slough, England.

Notes:

I saw this beetle outside a restaurant in the UK. I put an English pound coin (about 23mm in diam) beside it in one of the photos to give a sense of proportion. It was quite impressive, with its pincers.
