Anthia
''Anthia'' (common name saber-toothed ground beetles) is a genus of the ground beetle family (Carabidae). Species of ''Anthia'' can spray a jet of formic acid up to , which, if not treated, can cause blindness in animals that harass the beetles. In general, the beetles are large, armored and fast-moving, with prominent, powerful and sharp mandibles. Some are diurnal predators in semi-arid habitats, while others are nocturnal. The genus is one of a group of similar taxa of predatory Carabidae that has been the subject of considerable nomenclatural confusion. Several species here and elsewhere included within the genus ''Anthia'' are occasionally referred to as belonging to the non-existent genus ''Thermophilum'' (e.g. ''Anthia fornasinii'' referred to as ''Thermophilum fornasinii''), because the spelling has experienced a range of errors; the spelling that is valid under the ICZN and currently accepted is ''Termophilum'' but ''Thermophilum'' (an unjustified emendation of ''Termo ...
