Pensoft, 2017
Edited abstract:
Additions to the list of Carabidae known for Nevada, USA and carabid beetles found in the Great Basin National Park, NV are reported with notes on ecology and identification resources. For 79 species of carabids, the authors present 57 new state records, two state records previously reported in online resources [BugGuide], one confirmation of a previous questionable record for the state, and report 22 records for the Great Basin National Park that includes three new state records.

Carabidae of Vermont and New Hampshire By Ross T. Bell
Shire Press, VT, 2015
A lifetime of work on the carabid beetles of Vermont and New Hampshire has reached fruition and is now available in Carabidae of Vermont and New Hampshire by Ross T. Bell, Professor Emeritus of the University of Vermont. Ross Bell is a well-known and well-published expert on Carabidae. He and his wife, Joyce Bell, are the world's leading experts on the carabid tribe Rhysodini, the Wrinkled Bark Beetles, and have described over three quarters of the world's 360 species.
The work will be indispensable to anyone interested in the fauna of New England, ecology, habitats, conservation, distribution, or carabid beetles. It is not an identification manual, but there is a wealth of biological and distributional information beyond what has been currently available, along with 13 new state records or confirmation of catalogue records that were in doubt. An introduction discusses topography, mountains, wetlands, vegetation, soils, life zones, and biophysical regions of Vermont and New Hampshire. A list of species indicates state records, confirmation of catalogue records previously considered tentative, literature records, and adventive species. Names have been updated following Bousquet's 2012 Catalogue. The main text follows with brief tribal and generic summaries and individual accounts of 495 species. Each species account includes general range, local range, habitat, life cycle, behavior and dynamics. References, an index, and Vermont/New Hampshire range maps for all species finish the work.

Ground Beetles from the Quantico Marine Corps Base: 2. Thirty Additional Species from Recent Collections (Coleoptera: Carabidae) By Richard L. Hoffman
Banisteria Number 36, 2010
PDF
Both this and the first Quantico carabid paper (1) make a good companion to Erwin's classic on the carabids of nearby Plummers Island (2). In both Quantico papers, differences and similarities between carabids found at Quantico and Plummers Island are discussed most thoughtfully.
In this paper Hoffman also discusses the difficulty in telling the difference between Diplocheila assimilis and Diplocheila impressicollis, with new illustrations of [i]D.

Ground Beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) from Quantico Marine Corps Base, Virginia By John M. Anderson, Joseph C. Mitchell, Adrienne A. Hall, Richard L. Hoffman
Banisteria, Number 6, 1995
PDF
Includes useful comments on microhabitat preference and regional occurrence of each species, with especially useful information on the known ranges within Virginia.
Species discussed here were all captured in pitfalls. Carabid species collected at UV light at Quantico are discussed in Part 2 (1).
