Goliath beetles are a genus of very large beetles from the subfamily of bronze beetles, common in Central and Southeast Africa. Representatives of the genus are considered one of the heaviest beetles in the world - individual males during life can weigh up to 47 g, and according to other sources, up to 80-100 g. The body length of males is 80-110 mm, females 50-80 mm. During the daytime, beetles fly actively and spend most of their time in the crowns of trees. They descend to the ground extremely rarely, only in search of food, and females also to lay eggs. They feed on flowing tree sap and overripe fruits. The lifespan of an adult beetle is about 6 months
