I ignored Easter to catch beetles and emit depression

Caught these two, will attempt to breed. Of note is that Megapenthes contains at least one species of conservation concern in Europe.

Update: Stenochidus is being difficult, it's panicking and behaving abnormally because it's in an enclosed space, will probably release once I have the time. I figured this would happen given that it seems to happen to a lot of small flying plant-dwelling beetles but wanted to test. Put it on a potted plant in the meantime to soothe it (by making it think it's not on the ground).
