My male ghost molted to adult! I'm very excited, and it appears to have been a perfect molt. He has a tiny little bit of exoskeleton stuck to his crown, but I imagine that will fall off or I can carefully remove it later.
I'll be driving through Texas this summer, and I would love to track down some of these beetles. From everything I can find online, they're mostly found around the Austin area, with College Station mentioned as a good location. Oak and pecan trees are mentioned as prime habitat.
Anybody here...
