Hi! The bug identification submits aren’t working for me, so I’m just gonna slip this in here. Found this chonker in central Maryland a couple days ago, after it scared the bejesus out of my mom when she took the dog out lol. It is by far the largest beetle I’ve ever seen in my life! Any clue as to this buddy’s identity?
Big man! Or woman idk. It's a prionine longhorn beetle for sure and probably a broad-necked root borer, Prionus laticollis :)
