Mountain Stag Beetle –
Lucanus  hermani
Order: Coleoptera
Suborder: Polyphaga
Infraorder: Scarabaeiformia
Superfamily: Scarabaeoidea
Family: Lucanidae
Subfamily: Lucaninae
Tribe: Lucanini
Genus:
Lucanus
Subgenus:
Lucanus (Lucanus)
Distribution: S. China
Body length: Male: 22 - 58 mm Female: 27 - 30 mm
Stag beetles
are a group of about 1,200 species of beetle in the family
Lucanidae
. Some species grow to 8 cm (3¼ in), but most are about 5 cm (2 in).
The English name is derived from the large and distinctive mandibles found on the males of most species, which resemble the antlers of stags.
A well-known species in much of Europe is
Lucanus cervus
, referred to in Britain as "the" stag beetle (it is the largest British terrestrial insect). Pliny the Elder noted that Nigidius called the stag beetle
lucanus
after the Italian region of Lucania where they were used as amulets. The scientific name of
Lucanus cervus
is this word, plus
cervus
, deer.
Male stag beetles use their jaws to wrestle each other for favoured mating sites, but despite their often fearsome appearance they are not normally aggressive to humans. Stag beetles are sometimes used in the Chinese sport of insect fighting.
Female stag beetles are usually smaller than the males, with mandibles in normal proportion for a beetle.
The larvae feed for several years on rotting wood, growing into grubs which in larger species may be as big as a human finger.
Tropical Tiger Hornet -
Vespa tropica
Scientific Classification
Kingdom:
Animalia
Phylum:
Arthropoda
Class:
Insecta
Order:
Hymenoptera
Family:
Vespidae
Genus:
Vespa
Species:
V. tropica
This is a medium-sized to large species. Queens reach 30mm or more, males average 26mm and workers average 24 to 35 mm. There is some geographical variance within this species. Generally, the second abdominal segment carries a large area of bright yellow, while the rest of the abdomen is black.
Vespa tropica
is a widely distributed hornet in much of tropical Asia. It is rather secretive and tends to fly close to the cover of foliage. Individuals in Singapore often fly high in trees.
This species is known to attack the nests of
Polistines
(paper wasps) in order to obtain the larvae to feed their own larvae. It is said to be almost exclusive in choice of prey.
The nest of
Vespa tropica
is usually underground or in a tree hollow or similar enclosed space. Due to the location, the nest is seldom seen. If excavated, the nest usually appears rhomboid, with an open bottom (as opposed to the completely sealed nests of most aerial hornets). The nest envelope islaminar (comprising of distinct, broad individual layers) and very brittle.
Vespa tropica
does not seem to be a defensive species. It is strange how reluctant these insects were to attack. And it must be noted that this species has been responsible for many fatal attacks, due to the location of its nests and its wide distribution.
It must be noted that this species, like Vespa affinis, appears more aggressive in tropical regions than sub-tropical areas.
Larger colony sizes and constant hot weather cause most wasps to be more defensive in tropical regions.
