Holcaspis

Holcaspis is a genus of beetles in the family Carabidae, endemic to New Zealand.

== Taxonomy == The genus was originally proposed by Chaudoir in 1865, with a large number of species added by Thomas Broun in the late 19th century and early 20th century. The genus was revised by Everard Britton in 1940, and most recently by Michael Butcher in 1984, with several species added by Peter Johns in 2003. A phylogenetic analysis by Hanboonsong generally agreed with Butcher's species list, but found that H. oedicnema displayed an unusual amount of genetic variation and is probably a species complex.
