TABLE 8. Circumpolar Carabid beetles and their distribution among the 

 climatically determined zones of vegetation. 



Species with incomplete circumpolar area in brackets. ^ 

 Cross in brackets indicates rare, and perhaps not regular, occurrence. 

 The first column gives the state of the hind-wings, according to the following 

 categories: m = macropterous (probably flving); b = brachypterous (flightless, doubt- 

 ful cases in brackets); d = dimorphic (both forms represented within the species).
