Forest ground beetle Carabus (Archicarabus) nemoralis. Found in coniferous forests, it is often referred to as garden elytra, but it is characteristic of forests; its purple-bronze elytra are decorated with three rows of golden dots.

This is not C. violaceus, but Carabus (Archicarabus) nemoralis

Yes, yes.. nemoralis. I wonder if anyone has any information on the eastern finds of this bug? ...

And how much eastern? They were definitely caught near Chelyabinsk, but I don't remember further east now...

Does C. violaceus have rows of dots on the elytra or not?
