Why not? Here they are https://www.zin.ru/animalia/coleoptera/pdf/shapovalov_2016_taxonomy_genus_lytta_and_new_species.pdf and this taxon has been in the species rang for a thousand years - we just didn’t get around to it.

It seems like this beetle is now no longer a subspecies, but a completely independent species Lytta (s.str.) togata Fischer von Waldheim, 1844 http://www.zin.ru/Animalia/Coleoptera/rus/lyttogas .htm
And people say the same thing.....
The fact is that today I added such a beetle to my collection and, in my opinion, it differs quite significantly from the nominative, even visually.
We need to deal with this (look for the reason). Has anyone ever come across this kind of data?
