In this report, we discuss the discovery of Ξc(3055)0 , observed by its decay into the final-state ΛD0 , and present the first observation and evidence of the decays of Ξc(3055)+ and Ξc(3080)+ into ΛD+ . Furthermore, we perform a combined analysis of the ΛD+ with the Σc++ K- and Σc*++ K- decay modes to measure the ratios of branching fractions, masses and widths with improved accuracy. We measure the ratios of branching fractions B(Ξc(3055)+ΛD+)/B(Ξc(3055)+ Σc++ K-)=5.09±1.01±0.76 , B(Ξc(3080)+ΛD+)/B(Ξc(3080)+ Σc++ K-)=1.29±0.30±0.15 , and B(Ξc(3080)+ Σc*++ K-)/B(Ξc(3080)+ Σc++ K-)=1.07±0.27±0.04 , where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic. The analysis is performed using a 980fb-1 data sample collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider.
