This species remains one of the most peculiar
looking of the stag beetle clan (Lucanidae). It
is native to Columbia although specimens do
come out of Peru as well. My example measures
58mm. from mandible tip to abdomen.
This is a rather slender and lightly-built species
as lucanids go and it lacks the heavier build of
its brethren. However, it is an elegant species
decked out in its glossy black color. Magnificent.
