This is a small brownish water beetle with a metallic green thorax. It occurs in saltmarsh pools and coastal grazing levels ditches. The species is very rarely recorded but difficult to identify and therefore likely to be overlooked, although it seems to be genuinely scarce (Recorder species account). References
