  • Anillinus pecki

    Anillinus pecki is a species of small ground beetle in the family Carabidae, described by Giachino in 2011. It belongs to the subtribe Anillina, a group of minute carabid beetles often associated with subterranean or soil-dwelling habitats. The genus Anillinus is endemic to North America, with species distributed primarily in the eastern and central United States. Like other anillines, this species is likely eyeless or has highly reduced eyes and exhibits morphological adaptations for life in soil, leaf litter, or cave-like microhabitats.
