predatory beetles

[BigBadConrad]

I saw the Insectica episode on Discovery HD last night about the creatures of the Sahara desert, but I missed the name of those two spotted, predatory beetles that were ganging up on and ripping up that locust. They must be from the genus Carabidae, but does anyone know the species? Ever kept them? They were wicked.

Thanks,
John

Any idea what color they had :?

I like Tigerbeetles a lot too, but they are very rare in the hobby
