頭の前方に長く発達した大きな顎が、鹿の角に似た甲虫。大きな顎は雄同士が力を競ったり、交尾に使われる。樹液を食べ、力が強く、翅を広げて飛ぶことができる。

This beetle has long, well-developed mandibles at the front of its head that resemble a deer's antlers. The large jaws are used by males to compete for strength or to attract mates. It feeds on sap from trees, is strong, and can spread its wings to fly.
