Atomaria (Anchicera) alekseevi Lyubarsky et Bukejs, 2022
(Figs 6–7)
Material examined. One specimen AWI-143 [CVIA], Baltic amber; adult, sex unknown. Syninclusions: absent.
Note. The beetle (total length 1.57 mm) has antennomere 3 elongated, about 2× longer than wide, slightly shorter than antennomere 2; antennomeres 9 and 10 strongly transverse; pronotum about 1.5× wider than long; pronotal disc convex; pronotum distinctly narrowed toward base; lateral side borders of pronotum visible from above only in basal half of its length; and pronotum maximum width nearly in middle of its length. The abovementioned characters allow us to assign this specimen to A. alekseevi.
