Sericoda

Sericoda is a genus of harpaline ground beetles.

Their habit resembles some members of the related genus Agonum, but they are generally smaller.

The origin of Sericoda is apparently North America, with the Central American genus Elliptoleus the closest living relative.

Sericoda beetles are pyrophilous, meaning that they are attracted by burned areas after forest fires.
