Inanda trivialis is a species of beetle of the family Scarabaeidae. It is found in South Africa (KwaZulu-Natal, North West).

Description

Adults reach a length of about 5.25–6 mm (0.207–0.236 in). They are black with the elytra chestnut-red. The head is very scabrose and is covered with sub-appressed flavescent hairs. The pronotum is scabroso-punctate, but more densely so on the anterior part, and clothed with a moderately long and moderately dense appressed flavescent pubescence. The elytra are irregularly punctured, and clothed with somewhat long, sub-squamiform, not closely set flavescent hairs. The propygidium, pygidium, underside and hind legs have almost similar appressed hairs.
