This review is from: Insects of Hawaii: Hawaiian Carabidae (Coleoptera), Part 1 : Introduction and Tribe Platynini (Paperback)

This book covers most common the ground beetles of Hawai'i, in complete detail ranging from location on the islands to how to distinguish each species. Sketches of mandibles, pictures of the beetles and just about everything that you'd need to identify the bugs are included. It is an academic book and is excellent if you are trying to identify local species for conservation and census.
