I just returned from a mission trip to Zimbabwe Africa and while there bought a small toy tractor that was hand made by somebody sitting beside the road in northern Zimbabwe. After I got home I found a small pile of fine sawdust under the front axle of the tractor. I started looking around for some type of insect and found a dead beetle under a chair. I when through your pictures and did not see a picture that looks like what I found. Would you like me to send it to you so you can add it to your collection?

If so send me your address and I will send it to you

I have a orange and black marked beetle i would like identified and you can use the photo on your sight. I did not find it in your pictures. Maybe you can help?

I found a large beetle on my kitchen in the middle of the night on my way to the loo. Also another the the next night only a little smaller both were black and very large. The second one was making a tapping noise on the floor which sounded rather like a dripping tap, what could they be? Not to keen on spiders but these frightened me to death.

I have pictures of several beetles and insects from our sons garden in Bellville CapeTown South-Africa. How can I send you a picture to help with identification?

Could you help me identify a beetle if I sent you a photo? Don't see anything like it in your photo archive. Thanks

I found what I think is a veto but I have never found this color anywhere and I had to let it go of course I didn't have a job but I got some pictures of it what do I do

I would never have guessed there were sooooooo many kinds of beetles. However, I have one that I can not find on any web site. These are great pictures. I think I need to take my beetle to the Dept. of Ag. to identify it. I will try and get a picture to post.

Hello. Today I found a huge beetle nestled in my organic bananas after I brought them home from the store. They came from Ecuador I'm told. I live in Canada. It's at large in my house as I was unable to kill it. I wonder if you could help me in my search for the name of this creature? It was approximately 1 1/3" long and quite wide. Moved pretty fast and escaped the kill. Are any of these beetles poisonous I wonder? I would truly appreciate any info you could provide. Thank you!

Found a horned beetle eating the leaves of my Kiwi vines in SW Ontario Canada just after a couple of days of strong Westerly winds eminating from Texas. Did not find a match for it on your website. It is a large beetle aprox 1inch body length with royal blue wings flaming to brilliant yellow nearer the head. June 15, 2015. Concerned if there are more if it will destroy my kiwi foliage totally. Ever seen such a beetle? I can send some pictures if you provide an address to send them . Walter Dickie

I have this flat brownish black beetle with a bright yellow semicircle on it head. Ground boring, but also saw several in a dead frog. I've never seen it before. Guest Carol Ann

I had no idea there were so many BUT today on the cliff path I saw a large black beetle with a large head which it appeared to be burrowing with but the interesting thing about it was it's BRIGHT blue legs. Any ideas on which beetle it could be?
