Great Gallery. As always thanks for the ID'S. Now I can identify some of the beetles in my Garden.

fascinating set of pictures, you are showing them so clearly. I do so like the names they have too

We had beetle in our basement that looks like the calosoma, was abut 2" long, 1" wide, but it had pincers. Not as huge as the long-horned, but about the width as its head section.

I can't find anything like that online. Can you help..I think we are being invaded by creatures from another planet!
