Bembidion consanguineum Hayward
Bembidion consanguineum Hayward is my physical determination for this male specimen which is added to the PWM synoptic set of North American Caraboidea. Thank you Margarethe.

PWM note: Best distinguished from very similar Arizonan B. nevadense by elytra blackish (not brownish), with coarser strial punctures, and with dorsal microsculpture obsolete in both sexes. Contrary to Lindroth's claims about the elytra, the pale preapical spots appear basically the same in both species. Unfortunately this image did not capture the spots.
