Clinidium humboldti is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily Rhysodinae.[2] It was described by R.T. & J.R. Bell in 1985.[1][2] It is named for Alexander von Humboldt and the Humboldt Museum, from where the holotype was borrowed. It is known from "Nueva Granada", which could be in either present-day Colombia or Panama. The holotype is a female measuring 6.4 mm (0.25 in) in length.[1]
