Maladera sinobiloba is a species of beetle of the family Scarabaeidae.[1] It is found in China (Yunnan).[2][3]
Description
Adults reach a length of about 7.8–8.6 mm. They have an oblong-oval body. The antennae are yellow. The dorsal surface is reddish brown, mostly dull (while the labroclypeus is shiny) and nearly glabrous (except for some single setae on the head).[3]
Etymology
The species name is derived from Latin sino (meaning Chinese) and lobus (meaning lobe), as well as Greek bi (meaning two) and refers to the sysmmetric parameres having two lobes.[3]
