[QUOTE="Ranitomeya, post: 280911, member: 6796"] That's a third instar based on the size of the head capsule and the appearance of the spiracles. If it is Dynastes tityus, they do not feed on living plant material, but feed primarily on compost mainly composed of decaying wood and leaves. Collect rotten wood and very well-decayed leaves and make a fine compost for it to eat. It was most likely living and feeding on the deepest layers of decaying leaves when it was found. [/QUOTE]
