ID would be appreciated. Costa Rican cutest beetle, large size, greyish with pattern, huge horn on top is divided in the middle-see picture, another horn bottom with 2 tips.
I have not found the ID for this GORGEOUS Beetle...Anyone there that can help?
I think you put it in a wrong mission, it is not a butterfly nor a moth, put in the bettles misson ;)
Can not really find this beetle ID, Hercules and Rhino? none have the color and mapping of the body or the horns are too many or not enough, this one was like 3 cm long and not shiny.
This is an impressive rhino beetle and seems to have fine fur rather than a glossy shell. It is not the Japanese rhino beetle; the Americas have enough of their own. The GIANT herculese beetle (Dynastes) is longer than your hand! This cute smaller one is another similar species.
I hope it is not that Japanese Beetle because his life is so short!! The one I saw look strong and older but he looks as if he lived for a long time.
Yes...those eyes... would love to know what it is.
