Please help to ID these 3 specimens of Odontolabis sp from Cameron Highlands (Pahang, Malaysia)
Thank you in advance!

1. Looks like O. eremicola (shape of clypeus, pubescense of labium and mentum) but I`m not sure

2. O. somneri pahangensis?

O. eremicola occurs in The Borneo part of East Malaysia only.
So all three specimens seem to be that of O. someri phahangensis.

Yes #4 is O. wallastoni.

And the last pic contains from left to right; female Aegus, Figulus sp., female Gnaphaloryx, Figulus sp., and the rest are female Aegus species...

It seems therefore that a taste for collecting beetles is some indication of future success in life!--Charles Darwin
