This is the largest beetle I have found and held in my hand (and yes, I know it was deceased), but at approximately 5 cm in length from the head to the end of the abdomen, it makes it the largest beetle I have seen, dead or alive 🙂. From the family Cerambycidae (Longhorn Beetles). Mother Nature is amazing and is always presenting me with something new…
