This one might be Carabus meander.
Meander has more arcuate pronotoal margins like this one. Granulatus has a more squared-off pronotum.

See what you think. If you agree, yours would be the first of that species on bugguide.

Moved
to new guide page. If there's a common name, it could be included.

Common name
The name I know it by is the Granulated Carabid, but not sure if that is an official name.
