***Blennidus*** er en slekt av billene i delgruppen (underfamilien) Pterostichinae i familiegruppen løpebiller.  

## Utseende
Middelsstore (gjerne ca. 10 millimeter), avlange, blankt svarte løpebiller. Artene i denne slekten varierer en del i overflatisk utseende. Antennene er nokså korte, ca. så lange som hode + pronotum. Hodet er stort med kraftige kjever og middelsstore fasettøyne. Pronotum er rundet, noe bredere enn langt, dekkvingene rundede med fine punktrader.
