Why Five-Horned Rhinoceros Beetles Are Remarkable

Nature's Armoured Warriors

Five-horned rhinoceros beetles are among the most visually striking members of the Scarabaeidae family. Males develop an elaborate crown of five horns - two large forward-pointing horns on the head, two smaller lateral horns, and a central pronotal horn. This impressive armament is used in combat with rival males for territory and mating rights, making them fascinating subjects for natural history displays.

Perfect For Multiple Applications

These wholesale rhinoceros beetle specimens are ideal for diverse uses. Create stunning framed displays showcasing insect morphology, stock your retail shop or gallery with unique natural history items, build educational collections demonstrating sexual dimorphism and beetle diversity, use in taxidermy and natural history art, incorporate into resin jewellery and paperweights, or add to entomology reference collections.

What You'll Receive

Your wholesale lot includes 20 five-horned rhinoceros beetles (Eupatorus gracilicornis) from Thailand, each measuring 70-90mm in body length. Specimens arrive dry-preserved and unmounted, ready for setting, framing, or your creative projects. Expect impressive horn development, glossy black or dark brown colouration, and robust body structure.

Understanding Rhinoceros Beetle Biology

Rhinoceros beetles are among the strongest animals on Earth relative to their size - they can lift objects 850 times their own weight. The elaborate horns are found only on males and develop during the pupal stage. Females lack horns entirely, demonstrating one of nature's most dramatic examples of sexual dimorphism in insects.

Ideal For:

  • Entomology collectors building beetle reference collections
  • Frame shops creating insect art and shadow boxes
  • Retailers stocking natural history curiosities
  • Educators teaching about insect morphology and sexual dimorphism
  • Taxidermists and natural history artists
  • Resin artists creating beetle jewellery collections
  • Interior designers sourcing unique organic elements
  • Photographers capturing macro insect details

Ethically Sourced from Thailand

All our rhinoceros beetle specimens are ethically sourced from sustainable collecting programmes in rural Thailand. These initiatives support local communities while protecting forest habitats. We work directly with collectors who follow responsible practices, ensuring wild populations remain healthy. 

Quality & Condition

Each specimen is graded A1 for quality, meaning excellent condition with intact horns, minimal damage, and good colour retention. These are collectors-quality beetles suitable for professional displays, retail sale, or educational use. Minor variations in size and horn development are natural and add to the uniqueness of each specimen.

Versatile & Educational

Five-horned rhinoceros beetles offer exceptional educational value. They demonstrate evolutionary adaptation, sexual selection, insect strength and biomechanics, tropical biodiversity, and the incredible variety within the beetle order (Coleoptera) - the most diverse group of organisms on Earth with over 400,000 described species.
