The carabid beetle genus Catadromus MacLeay (Coleoptera: Carabidae) is endemic to the Australasian region. Of the five currently recognised species, only one, C. lacordairei Boisduval, 1835 occurs in Tasmania, Australia, where it is listed as a threatened species on the Tasmanian Threatened Species Protection Act 1995. In the present paper, we describe and illustrate the larva of C. lacordairei, providing the first detailed larval description of a member of this genus.
步甲科昆虫Catadromus MacLeay属(鞘翅目:步甲科)是澳大拉西亚地区特有的。在目前已知的五个物种中,只有一种,即1835年由博伊杜瓦尔命名的拉科代尔氏步甲(Catadromus lacordairei)分布于澳大利亚塔斯马尼亚岛,根据1995年《塔斯马尼亚濒危物种保护法》,它被列为濒危物种。在本文中,我们描述并展示了拉科代尔氏步甲的幼虫,首次对该属的一个成员进行了详细的幼虫描述。
