Taille : 12-15 mm
Diagnose :
Corps large, allongé, assez convexe, glabre et luisant, entièrement noir avec les élytres cuivreux ou vert métallique. Ceux-ci avec de fortes rides transversales qui interrompent les stries et leur donnent un aspect bosselé. Les pattes sont brun-noir. Les antennes fortement dentées à partir du 4e article atteignent à peine le milieu du pronotum. Le pronotum est peu convexe, à bords bien arrondis, plus large que long avec les pointes postérieures longues et droites. La ponctuation du pronotum est moyenne et très dense.
Identification : Assez facile.
Confusions possibles :
La sculpture élytrale est caractéristique.
Périodes d'observation (adultes) : Juillet-août.
Biologie-éthologie :
La larve est terricole et prédatrice d'autres larves. Les adultes se rencontrent sur les plantes basses ou sous les pierres.
Biogéographie-écologie :
Espèce boréo-alpine qui occupe les pelouses alpines au-dessus de 2200 m d'altitude dans les Alpes et se retrouve à basse altitude en Sibérie.

The map presents a summary at the 10 x 10 km grid of the observation data for the species transmitted to the SINP. These data have been subjected to validation filters.
The map presents a reference distribution layer of the species at the scale of departments and marine sectors. The presence and absence data were established by expertise within a network of partners. This reference distribution is used in the validation process of the SINP data at the INPN level.
Corresponds to a report on the basis of at least one observation proved within a period of 10 years (20 years for little-known invertebrates) preceding the year and no presumption of extinction since obtaining the last data nor doubt on reproductive and implemented nature of this population. For migratory species, the presence indicated concerns areas of reproduction.
This status is based on one or more of the following criteria:
This point covers the absence, more difficult by nature to demonstrate than presence. This status is based on one or more of the following criteria:
This status must be assigned to a department in which the presence of the species is casual.
Particular case of absence due to a proven extinction less than a half century ago (older disappearances are treated as "no probable or definite").
In the state of knowledge, we can not comment on the presence or absence in the current department. This is the default status when not comprised in one of the previous categories or whenever there is doubt.
The map shows the global distribution of the species based on GBIF data (Global Biodiversity Information Facility).
