Nigrotrichia sauteri is a species of beetle of the family Scarabaeidae.[1] It is found in China (Ningxia) and Taiwan.[2][3]
Description
Adults reach a length of about 18–21 mm (0.71–0.83 in). They are very similar to Nigrotrichia kiotonensis, but the punctation of the pronotum is much more extensive and the pit-like punctures are significantly larger and appear elongated on the disc, tapering somewhat posteriorly. The pygidium is somewhat flatter and more sparsely punctate.[3]
