Dorcus miwai is a species of stag beetle that is endemic to Taiwan.

They can live 1-2 years in captivity with proper care.

Dorcus miwai beetles are usually easy to care for in captivity.

In captivity, beetle jelly from pet stores will readily be accepted.

Fruits, such as grapes and watermelons, that are high in water content are not suitable for these beetles, as they may drown.
