'''''Rhabdotis''''' is a genus of flower chafers in the beetle family Scarabaeidae.{{NoteTag|Some sources assign the taxonomic rank of family to the flower chafers, in which case ''Rhabdotis'' is classified as a genus of the family Cetoniidae.}}
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.
