Cicindela sachalinensis is a species of tiger beetle in the family Cicindelidae.[2]

It was first described in 1862 by August Morawitz,[2][1][3] with the species epithet, sachalinensis, describing it as being found on Sakhalin.[3]

It has been synonymised with C. raddei[1] (described by Morawitz in the same publication)[3] but the basis of this synonymisation is not clear.

It is native to the northern and central parts of Korea, China, Russia, and Mongolia.[1]
