these keep crawling out of my bathtub drain?

i’ve found about four of them, this started about a month ago. Does anyone have any idea what they are? (western australia )

At first glance, and coming up from a drain I thought Australian bush cockroach nymph, but the spots like that are more like brown flower beetle. They're common around Brisbane.

It is g stolata :)

Eyy brown flower beetle!

I couldn't remember the Latin name and was too lazy to look them up. I hadn't had coffee yet 😅

[u/WestCoastInverts → u/activelyresting]

That's why I skipped the genus haha

This is why I need a live-in indentured servant to fetch me coffee before I open Reddit. I can't believe Dan Andrews could do this to us!

Glycyphana yes but species can't be confirmed - you need images of the leg spurs which are only visible ventrally to seperate G. stolata from some of the others (exception is given to individuals in W.A where G. stolata was introduced)

[u/CrimsonPie24]

Glycyphana sp

They are flower beetles. Common in your area and harmless, pop them outside in your garden :)

I would be more concerned as to how much water is leaking to the underside of the bath after seeing the plug and waste.
