Belonging to the family Lucanidae, order Coleoptera, and class Insecta, stag beetles have large heads and flat bodies. They are called “shovel- shaped bugs” in Chinese because their elytra look like shovels. (Their English name—“stag beetles”—comes from the resemblance between their mandibles and the antlers of stags.) This group of insects includes many different species, with different habits and seasons.
