Could you please help: a foreign environmentalist is looking for databases esp. regarding stag beetles - could you direct me to picture of one if you have - and do you or anybody know where and how often found here - if at all? Not urgent as I told her I had this database and would send particulars if she gave email address - but maybe she's off in desert again - or elsewhere doing research. I am curious too - so thank you in advance - also if you know of others who research them please tell. Kind regards Hanne.

Hi Thea Will help you if I can, but you have to know that I am not an expert, just a keen amateur. I can also ask some expert friends of mine. Send the to me at albertgf@maltanet.net and I will see what I can do. Regards.

Not easy to say what species they are without seeing them, but I do not know of any beetles in Malta which are dangerous (I presume you mean their bites would be harmful).

Could some-one please help we have three beetles on our balcony. They are black apart from a triangle shape creamy white bottom. About 1cm in length. In Malta. Can anyone tell me if these are dangerous.
