Tropinota squalida

Beetle of the Cetonidae family, very similar to Oxythyrea funesta. It has no stains on the pronotus and white undulated marks on the elitra. It is very hard to distinguish from T. hirta although the last one is much less common.
Head, scutellum and elytra are dark-brown, with a thick and long tawny hair on elytra and abdomen. Elytra show two series of white spots on the sides of the central hull. Scutellun is rounded and hairy, but glabrous in the posterior. The fifth humeral slot is bifurcated.

Larvae feed on roots, while the adults can be encountered from May through July feeding on flowers. They are 10–15 millimetres (0.39–0.59 in) long.
