Phylogeny of world stag beetles (Coleoptera: Lucanidae) reveals a Gondwanan origin of Darwin’s stag beetle

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2015
Stag beetles (family Lucanidae Latreille, 1804) are one of the earliest branching lineages of scarab beetles that are characterized by the striking development of the male mandibles. Despite stag beetles' popularity among traditional taxonomists and amateur collectors, there has been almost no study of lucanid relationships and evolution. Entomologists,

Are stag beetles fungivorous?

Journal of Insect Physiology, 2009
Stag beetle larvae generally feed on decaying wood; however, it was unknown whether they can use wood-rotting fungi alone as food. Here, to clarify this, newly hatched larvae of Dorcus rectus (Motschulsky) (Coleoptera: Lucanidae) were reared for 14 days on artificial diets containing a fixed amount of freeze-dried mycelia of the following fungi ...

Diversity of Stag Beetle-Associated Nematodes in Japan

Environmental Entomology, 2011
ABSTRACT A survey of stag beetle (Lucanidae)-associated nematodes was conducted in Japan to construct a preliminary species inventory and to obtain their molecular profiles as a first step for elucidating their host fidelity and ecological roles. Eight species of stag beetles (94 individuals in total), Dorcus rubrofemoratus, D.
