Great stuff. So many interesting beetles. Your pics are very sharp. As for mating, I guess pheromones help with that. Some even think humans have pheromones. :)

Thanks for your kind words and knowledge sharing.

The pheromone is incredible!:-)

Sorry for the low IQ. This guy can detect my motion from Mars by its two eyes that are miles away from each other.

What a strange little creature!
