Neoserica semipubescens is a species of beetle of the family Scarabaeidae. [1] It is found in Thailand. [2] [3]
Adults reach a length of about 6 mm. They have a reddish-brown, elongate-oval body. The underside is dark brown, and the head and pronotum are also dark brown, but partly with a greenish sheen. The dorsal surface is densely covered with light, short hairs, interspersed with long, strong, lighter hairs. The underside is densely covered with hairs. [3]
The species name is derived from Latin semi (meaning half) and pubescens (meaning hairy). [3]
