These beetles were found in May on a rotten tree stump on the Trap Grounds during our Springwatch Family Day by a pupil at St Philip & St James primary school, but until today we did not know his name. Today I had the pleasure of meeting Karim Chibane and congratulating him on his significant find. According to beetles expert Linda Losito, Rhinoceros beetles, members of the scarab family, have been reported only once before in Oxford (on the Lye Valley nature reserve).
