Amiserica surda is a species of beetle of the family Scarabaeidae. It is found in eastern Nepal. [2]
Adults reach a length of about 6-6.3 mm. They have a light to reddish brown, oblong-oval body. The elytra are yellow-brown with dark speckles, while the head and pronotum often have a greenish metallic sheen. The elytra and most of the pronotum are dull, with some shiny areas. The upper surface is glabrous except for a few hairs on the elytra. [3]
The species name is derived from Latin surda (meaning deaf). [3]
