Taxonomy:

 

Paulsen, M.J. 2013. A new genus for the Neotropical species of Aesalus Fabricius, with descriptions of eight new species (Coleoptera: Lucanidae: Aesalinae). Insecta Mundi 0325: 1-25. Download.

 
 
 

 

 
 

Remarks:

 

This species is the most easily recognizable aesaline in Central America because of its rounded, produced clypeal apex. I collected the entire series of one living and a few dead, disarticulated specimens and body parts in a decaying pine log.
