good afternoon. You could look at Cryptophagus. Beetles were found in smetki in warehouses. Krasnoyarsk Krai
1. It seems to me that this is Cr. cellaris Light-brown beetle. The dots on the pronotum are almost equal to the dots on the elytra. The eyes are evenly rounded. Below is a photo of Edeagus. The spike on the edge of the pronotum is located in the center.The front corners are thickened, but do not have teeth at the back, but there is a rather obvious groove on top.

2. Closer to Cr. distinguendus
is darker. the dots are also almost identical on the pronotum and elytra. The front edge is thickened, behind the thickening has a very small poorly noticeable denticle. The median tooth is located near the middle of the pronotum margin. From above, the eyes have a slightly conical shape.

1. the genitals are pretty non-trivial, so I'd check for obsoletus: http://www.zobodat.at/pdf/ANNA_96B_0247-0342.pdf
in general, it seems similar, besides it seems like a "Siberian species") even the sclerites of the bag are sometimes informative, so I would also like to compare them, but you can't see them in the photo.
