Corticotomus depressus
Corticotomus depressus is a species of ground beetle in the family Carabidae. The genus Corticotomus is a small group within the tribe Harpalini, characterized by species adapted to particular microhabitats. Very little specific information is available about this particular species in the accessible literature. The species epithet "depressus" suggests a flattened body form, which is common among ground beetles that inhabit tight spaces under bark or in leaf litter.
