Subgenus Anchomenus Bonelli, 1810

Anchomenus Bonelli, 1810: Tabula Synoptica. Type species: Carabus prasinus Thunberg, 1784 (= Carabus dorsalis Pontoppidan, 1763) designated by Westwood (1838: 3).

Ectenes Billberg, 1820: 29. Type species: Carabus prasinus Thunberg, 1784 (= Carabus dorsalis Pontoppidan, 1763) designated by Bousquet (2002b: 19).

Clibanarius des Gozis, 1882: 295 [junior homonym of Clibanarius Dana, 1852]. Type species: Carabus dorsalis Pontoppidan, 1763 by original designation. Etymology. From the Latin clibanarius (cuirassier) [masculine].

Chlaeniomimus Semenov, 1889b: 687. Type species: Chlaenius gracilicollis Jakowleff, 1887 (= Atranus virescens Motschulsky, 1864) by original designation. Synonymy established by Liebherr (1991b: 33). Etymology. From the generic name Chlaenius [q.v.] and the Latin mimus (actor), probably alluding to the resemblance of the adults in the eyes of Semenov to those of some Chlaenius [masculine].

Nipponachus Habu, 1978: 36. Type species: Anchomenus leucopus Bates, 1873 by original designation. Synonymy established by Liebherr (1991b: 33). Etymology. From the English nippon (a Japanese name for Japan) and the generic name Anchus [q.v.] [masculine].
