Another minotaur beetle

Earlier in the year Chris Bentley reported finding a female minotaur beetle Typhaeus typhoeus , a new record for the Rye Harbour LNR.  This afternoon I found the corpse of a male on a hillside above Pett Level.  The UK distribution map on the NBN Gateway shows  no records for the Rye and Pett 10 km squares.
