Japanese Rhinoceros Beetles – Mating

Mating of Japanese Rhinoceros Beetles or “kabutomushi” (カブトムシ) – Allomyrina dichotoma. Synonym – Trypoxylus dichotomus. Before and during mating the male emits a weak squeaky chirping sound with his abdomen. Once the eggs inside the female are fertilized, she will start laying them in a decayed moist wood substrate.
