I have a photo of a living sp of Casignetus sp shot in Teresópolis, RJ, Brasil. You can see it in my website http://www.biodiversidadeteresopolis.com.br . You must follow this order: Index das espécies: Classe Insecta Ordem Coleoptera Família Lucanidae. I’m not a biologist, so you can help me a lot correcting my errors.
Kind regards

Hi Antonio,
thanks for your reply. Looking at your picture, I am actually not sure whether it is not Casignethus humboldti. I am no specialist in South American Lucanidae, so I might be wrong.
Interesting page that you have. Good job!
Warm regards
Benjamin
