Type species: Carabus cisteloides Panzer, 1793 (= Carabus fuscipes Goeze, 1777) designated by Curtis (1827: plate 184). Diversity. Fifty species (Lorenz 2005: 396-397) in Europe, the Middle East, and Nepal. Most of the species are endemic to the Mediterranean region. One species is adventive in western North America. Taxonomic Note. Fuscocalathus Negre (1969: 7) is usually cited as a junior synonym of this subgenus following Ball and Negre (1972: 510). However, the name is a nomen nudum since Negre (1969) failed to designate a type species for his new taxon.
