as Attagenus lobatus —
[Editorial note on "Attagenus sericeus Reitter, 1881" in Háva (2025): listed as a synonym, but it is actually a misidentification (Attagenus sericeus sensu Reitter, 1881b non Guérin-Méneville, 1838). Because Reitter was misapplying Guérin's name rather than describing a new species, it creates no available name under ICZN and is properly cited as Attagenus sericeus: Reitter (as in Mroczkowski 1968)]
