#parallelipipedus
Deze dreigende man was een enorme kever van meer dan 20 mm, maar heet in het Nederlands "klein" vliegend hert (Dorcus parallelipipedus). Staat nog als zeldzaam te boek, maar is echt behoorlijk algemeen tegenwoordig. In en rond dood hout te vinden. #ElkeDagEenInsect

Mijn eerste #vliegendhert van dit jaar, maar dan wel een dame van het Klein vliegend hert #Dorcus parallelipipedus. De grote #kevers laten hier nog even op zich wachten.

Guten Morgen! Was war gestern schön was hat euch gefreut? Es sind die kleinen Dinge die zählen.

Hier: wir hatten Besuch im Garten. Der Balkenschröter hat sich wieder einmal gezeigt. Dieser Käfer ernährt sich von Pflanzensaft, die Larven wachsen in morschem Holz von Laubbäumen heran. 🐞📸

One of the few Lesser Stag Beetles I see in the garden. This one was on the wall earlier this afternoon.

A Stag Beetle (Lucanus cervus) and Lesser Stag Beetle (Dorcus parallelipipedus) found in recent years. Still the only Stag Beetle I've ever recorded. @coleopsoc.bsky.social @colsocbi.bsky.social #coleoptera #beetles #britishbeetles #wildliferecording

It's not always moths that catch the morning eye ~ this superb Lesser Stag Beetle (Dorcus parallelipipedus) was in the actinic today, perhaps it was the same own that we saw yesterday (but didn't get too many shots of). Absolute unit & v. smart too.

Ein Bewohner der Eichen guckt vorbei. Der Balkenschröter (Dorcus parallelipipedus), auch Zwerghirschkäfer genannt ernährt sich von Pflanzensäften an Exsudatstellen. Die Larven leben in morschen Holzteilen.
