A small, fast-moving ground beetle known for its predatory behavior and rapid hunting capabilities in open terrestrial habitats across its native range.
Found in sandy or disturbed areas such as coastal regions, riverbanks, forest edges, and open grasslands with sparse vegetation, typically at elevations between 0-1,500 meters.
Critical predator in small invertebrate ecosystems, controlling populations of smaller insects and serving as prey for larger predators, contributing to local biodiversity and ecological balance.
