Acupalpus hydropicus
is confirmed based on my microscopic examination of this specimen which is now a photo-voucher in the P.W.Messer collection. Thanks Tom for this new species addition to my reference collection.

Moved from Ground Beetles.
I'll save this one for Peter. I think the other one from 2007 was the year before I started saving them for Peter.

I would love to confirm the identification
of this potentially new photo-voucher, It would be the first "Acupalpus hydropicus" in my synoptic collection of North American Carabidae. This is about the only Acupalpus species for which I do not have a representative specimen. Thanks in advance Tom.

Voucher specimen
Peter, it's already saved for you. I'll send this and about 6 other Carabids out to you soon.
