Brachinus texanus is a species of ground beetle in the genus Brachinus ("bombardier beetles"), in the family Carabidae ("ground beetles").[1][2][3] It is found in North America. Like other bombardier beetles, it can spray a boiling, corrosive liquid from its abdomen if provoked, and as such should not be handled.[2]
