Sharp spectral structures in the γ-ray band are an important dark matter (DM) signature. Previously, a tentative line feature at ∼43 GeV was reported in 16 nearby galaxy clusters (GCls) with 7.1 yr of Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) data, whose test statistic (TS) value is ∼16.7. In this work, we search for line signals and box-shaped structures using the stacked data from those 16 GCls with 11.4 yr of Fermi-LAT P8R3 data. There is still a hint at ∼42 GeV, dominated by the radiation of the Virgo and Ophiuchus clusters. Though the TS value was high up to 21.2 in 2016 October, currently it has dropped to 13.1. Moreover, the TS value at ∼42 GeV decreases to 2.4 when the EDISP2 data are excluded from the analysis. Consequently, we do not find any statistically significant line-like signal and then set up the 95% confidence level upper limits on the thermally averaged cross section of DM annihilating into double photons. The same line search has been carried out for an alternative GCl sample from the Two Micron All-Sky Survey, but no evidence has been found. We also search for box-shaped features in those 16 baseline GCls. No signal is found, and the corresponding upper limits on the annihilation cross section are given.
