Please help me to identify this flower beetle found on cotton flower.

Thanks

Epuraea sp. (Nitidulidae).

Yes, I am also in agreement with Athanasios that this beetle is surely from family Nitidulidae, genus Epuraea and maybe Epuraea luteola.

I agree with the definition of the species Elaheh Daghighi

Epuraea luteola

Yes Epuraea luteola is a possibility..on which plant you found it.. It's a sap beetle.. A better identification we can have if host plant is provided and the type of damage..

It's on cotton flower. Some person says it's Carpophilus

Dear Amandeep,

It does not seem to be Carpophilus. Epuraea luteola better fits the sample. This is our opinion on the photo you sent and finally you may check if this species happen to occur in your region of study or not as Rupinder also mentioned. Overall, Epuraea luteola as all other colleagues are in agreement is the best for the ID of this beetle.

Definitley Nitidulidae

Coleoptera

Nitidulidae

Carpophilus sp..

It may be C. mutilatus (confused sap bettels)

Thanks alot to all scientists for their valuable information.

Manal Elshaier , check the pronotum/elytra length ratio please. You're obviously wrong. Thanks!
