Brown beetle, 3+ inches long, pinchers, long antenna. found in evening, Texas panhandle, in area of lake. - Derobrachus Fritch, Hutchinson County, Texas, USA August 18, 2007 Size: 3+ inches
This photo was taken next to a woman's flip-flop shoe. Taken in afternoon. Beetle is very large, have not seen anything like this in the area. Did not move from the spot in photo until the next morning. Then we did not look for it again. Did not seem aggressive when we touched it with a stick, just moved a little. Would like to know what kind of beetle it is.
