Genus indet.

Material examined. One specimen with collection number 5726-18 [KRAM]; Baltic amber, adult, sex unknown (possible female, sex patch(es) on abdominal ventrites are missing), complete specimen visible in ventrolateral position only. The beetle inclusion is preserved in a medium-sized, flat, yellow, polished piece of transparent amber with dimensions of 36×22× 6 mm without supplementary fixation. Syninclusions are absent. Body length of the specimen is 3.7 mm. The main differential generic characters are not observable on the specimen due to the specimen position and optical opacity of the amber layer above the beetle.
