      The author studies conformally invariant properties of almost cosymplectic manifolds, as for example in [Note Mat. 23, No.~1, 51--60 (2005; Zbl 1203.53078)]. Since the cosymplecticity is shown to be not preserved under nontrivial conformal transformations, the author uses a more general class of structures, called locally conformally almost cosymplectic structures. She relates the complete group of structure equations of this structure with components of the Riemannian curvature tensor on the space of the associated \(G\)-structure, and proves some contact analogies of well-known curvature identities of \textit{A. Gray} [Tohoku Math. J., II. Ser. 28, 601--612 (1976; Zbl 0351.53040)].
