Rhabdotis is a genus of flower chafers in the beetle family Scarabaeidae.
It differs from Pachnoda by having the anterior edge of the clypeus tucked in and bilobed, a more elongated and oblique mesosternal projection, and a shiny green elytra punctate, striated and decorated with white dots and dashes.
