The enormous series of this species which I obtained for examination has enabled 
me to prove the specific identity of O. alces and O. dux, which Professor Burmeister had 
already suspected. 
But Burmeister went much too far. He was not satisfied with uniting 0. carinatus, 
Linn., 0. camelus, Oliv., O. bellicosus, Cast., and its female O. ursus, Cast., but he 
even included Lucanus glabratus, De Haan (= Neolucanus laticollis, Thunb.), the female 
of which is Z. puncticeps, De Haan, in the same series. Shortly afterwards Reiche' 
recognized the error of Burmeister, and separated 0. alces, as used by Burmeister, into 
OQ. carinatus, Linn., and O. bellicosus, Cast., but confused everything afresh by uniting
