Maladera krombeini is a species of beetle of the family Scarabaeidae. It is found in Sri Lanka.
Adults reach a length of about 6.8-7.4 mm. They have a yellowish brown, oblong-oval body. The dorsal surface is dull and glabrous, except for a few small setae on the head and the lateral margins of the pronotum and elytra.
