3ABA9B895E5F56BF8E4C707FAA2D0526.taxon	discussion	Discussion. It is difficult to refer the fragments from the deposit to one of the known species of the genus Ebaeus Erichson due to the considerably larger size of elytra and pronotum, and their colouration with distinct violet-blue metallic lustre. Probably, this is one of independent and undescribed species which could be defined if male elytra are found.	en	Tshernyshev, Sergei E., Dudko, Roman Yu., Gurina, Anna A., Legalov, Andrei A.
