Hello Alexaandru, does the posterior margin of elytra have long bristles, or is it simple?

:hi: :hi: G.

So it is most likely a B. explodens.

hi alexandru

it may also be B. glabratus, seemingly more widespread than reported; the distinct elytral striation indeed argue more for glabratus

however, a sure determination requires aedeagus examination in dorsal view

p.s. glabratus on lobl&smetana catalogue is reported as synonym of explodens, but this appears incorrect

Thank Maurizio :lov2: , so for now when I will find again Brachinus species I must extract the aedeagus :oooner: .....you think this specimen is a male?
