HERCULES LONGHORN BEETLE - BATOCERA HERCULES

THE SCIENCE:

Batocera hercules is a species of beetle in the Cerambycidae (longhorn beetle) family, found in Indonesia and the Philippines. Members of this species can reach between 2 and 3.4 inches in length, excluding the antennae which may reach up to 4 inches on their own. Members of this species are exceptionally adapted to their natural habitats, their bodies often mimicking the moss and bark it feeds on and lives in. This is the strongest species of longhorn beetle (hence the name), being able to lift and transport many times its own weight.

THE STORY:

Our all-natural, intact specimens (no fake parts here!) are all of first-rate quality, delicately prepared, mounted, and framed with double-glass glazing in our very own fabrication studio in Upstate New York. We model our frames from solid fine ashwood, and they’re available in both a matte-black, and a natural finish.

Our framed insects are made-to-order. Please allow up to two weeks for your order to be completed. If you need your order sooner than this, please contact us at 212-343-1114 x401 or fabrication@theevolutionstore.com and we will do our best to accommodate you!
