Carabus clatratus - Golden-dimpled Ground Beetle

I've been waiting for definitive identification of this previously misidentified (by me!) beetle. I'd thought it was Carabus arvensis, but it is in fact the superb Carabus clatratus, which for once has an English name - and a rather lovely and fitting one at that - Golden-dimpled Ground Beetle.
