	Scarabaeoidea
		Lucanidae and Diphyllostomatidae together form the sistergroup of the Passalidae.
		Recent evidence suggests that it is a member of the so-called "primitive" scarabaeoids (Passalidae, Lucanidae, Diphyllostomatidae, Trogidae, Bolboceratidae, Pleocomidae and Glaphyridae).

		Lucanidae species are more common in the countries of the eastern part of the Baltic region (PL, LT, LV, EE, BY, RU) because the environment is better for them there.

	IngentaConnect Genera and Allometry in the Stag Beetle Family Lucanidae, Coleopt...
		Analyses of intraspecific and interspecific mandible allometry and dimorphism for natural population samples of 45 species in 3 representative genera of the stag beetle family Lucanidae confirmed that conventional taxonomists have been identifying groups of species sharing the same intraspecific allometry and dimorphism as a genus.
		This highly parallel nature of intraspecific allometry and dimorphism with the interspecific variation within the same genus suggests that each genus of Lucanidae is characterized by its own basic allometric and dimorphic program, and all the variations within genus, whether they are intraspecific or interspecific, follow this basic program.
		Genera in the Lucanidae are quantitatively describable, and possibly developmentally definable, biological entities.

	Digimorph - Staghorn Beetle
		Lucanus, the staghorn beetle, is a charismatic member of the beetle group Lucanidae, and it has captured the imagination of many naturalists.
		The antennae of lucanids are composed of 10 segments, and their morphology is described as geniculate, signifying that the second segment forms an obtuse angle with the first.
		Each antenna ends in a pectinate club; however, the terminal segments of the antennae cannot be closed as is observed in Scarabaeidae, a clade that is closely allied to Lucanidae (Arnett, 1960).

	Lucanidae (Insecta, Coleoptera)
		Abstract: An annotated list is provided for 5 genera and 9 species of Lucanidae (Coleoptera) collected from the Passam area, East Sepik Province, Papua New Guinea during 1989.
		The Lucanidae of the Passam region are partial to the dead wood of tree species from the families Bignoniaceae and Rutaceae and in particular, Euphorbiaceae - all of these families contain plants with mucilaginous sap or latex which are rich in sugars and nutrients.
		It is most likely for this reason that the Lucanidae are most commonly encountered in fallen logs belonging to these plants.

		This collection of Lucanidae is made of male and female exemplars.
		The adult Lucanidae live only few months, though they need many (usually five) years to grow up.
		All the specimens shown here belong to the the species Lucanus cervus; such a name is due to the enormous mandibolae of the male, which look like the horns of a cervus.

		The xylophagous or saproxylophagous diet of Lucanidae make them potentially sensitive to forest management such as decayed wood removal, as well as to forest fragmentation, degradation or loss (Speight, 1989).
		In addition, many of the European Lucanidae species are endemisms; these species use to be left aside in protection international policies.
		The objective of this project is to gather the available information about distribution, abundance and conservation or threat status for all European Lucanidae species, with special emphasis in those present in the Iberian peninsula.

		Abstract The elytral vestiture, pits, and surrounding integument in representatives of four lucanid subfamilies have been studied.
		Differences in the elytral surface structures suggest that the New Zealand aesalines belong in two genera, neither of which is the Australian genus Ceratognathus, where they are currently placed.
