I found this amazing Beetle this morning, and although I can find pictures of it online I have YET to locate the name. Hoping you can help me.

Male Eastern Hercules Beetle

Dear Happily,
We receive several identification requests for Eastern Hercules Beetles each year, but this year seems to have more than the usual number, which prompted us to feature the Eastern Hercules Beetle on our site’s banner.  Your male with his especially prominent horns is magnificent.
