Microserica biapoensis is a species of beetle of the family Scarabaeidae. [1] It is found in Myanmar. [2] [3]
Adults reach a length of about 5.4–5.6 mm. They have a moderately broad, oval, moderately convex body. The coloration is variable, sometimes uniformly black or with the elytra yellowish-brown with a dark suture interval and sides. The surface is dull (partly with a greenish sheen) and glabrous, except for the legs and the anterior labroclypeus. [3]
The species is named after its type locality Carin-Cheba (Bia-po in the Careni mountains). [3]
