Mecodema howittii
Mecodema howittii is a species of ground beetle in the genus Mecodema that is endemic to New Zealand. It is only known from Banks Peninsula in the Canterbury region. It is the largest of the endemic carabidae found on the peninsula. Because of a significant reduction in its distribution, it is considered to be a declining species. M. howittii is most commonly found underneath logs during the spring and summer, primarily in forest and grassland habitats...
