| Re: Two beetles for ID please
Indeed, both Harpalus sp but unfortunately not quite the magnification to see some important elements. Might be H. tardus, H. latus, H. rubripes but I would go for H. affinis (formerly H. aeneus) but please don't take that as 'gospel'!
Harpalus spp are one of the few genera which are phytophagus: they eat seeds.
