Genus Anchomenus Bonelli, 1810
Anchomenus Bonelli, 1810: Tabula Synoptica. Type species: Carabus prasinus Thunberg, 1784 (= Carabus dorsalis Pontoppidan, 1763) designated by Westwood (1838: 3). Etymology. From the Greek anchomenos (strangled), possibly alluding to the cordate pronotum (" th [orax] obcordatus," character of the stripe Anchomenii of Bonelli) of the adult [masculine].
Diversity.
Fourteen species in the Nearctic (three species) and Palaearctic (ten species) Regions and one species ( Anchomenus capensis Liebherr) endemic to Baja California. These species are arrayed in two subgenera: Anchodemus Motschulsky (three Palaearctic species) and Anchomenus s.str. (11 species).
Identification.
Liebherr (1991b) revised the species except for three Palaearctic species of the subgenus Anchomenus s.str.
