this is species not genus --John-Nash 16:51, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC) Hey in Japan isn't Hercules Beetle fihgting popular? It was on an episode of Samurai Champloo.

Length ranking

This is the longest beetle. Guinness has credited a length of 19 cm (7.48 in) for D. hercules, and 18 cm (7.09 in) for D. neptunus – though the latter seems rather generous, as most sources seem to put the maximum at 15.8–16.0 cm (6.22–6.30 in) for this species. The longest Titan beetle was a mere 16.7 cm, as can be seen from University of Flordia Book of Insect Records; this specimen was collected from French Guiana in 1989. I've also seen a weight of 34 g (1.2 oz) for D. hercules, which is very impressive indeed, as no adult non-gravid insect has been documented at over 50 g (1.76 oz) – despite contrary claims for the Goliath beetle. --Anshelm '77 18:33, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
