Abstract(s)

A new genus (Cedrorum n. gen.), a new species (C. azoricus n. sp.) including its nominate subspecies (C. a. azoricus) and a new subspecies (C. a. caveirensis n. ssp.) of Poecilini are described (Coleoptera, Carabidae, Pterostichinae), collected during a pitfall survey in the Azorean Climax pattern of autochthonous forest from the Terceira island (1989-1991) and during the Expeditions "Santa Maria e Formigas 90" (June 1990) and "Laurel-Pico 92" (July 1992) to the islands of S. Maria and Pico respectively. Some comments on the systematic, distribution and origin of the new taxa are made. The seasonality of the Terceira population is also presented.
