I was given the luck to see and pick this dead specimen in my car park. Body length about 16-17mm.
Would it be a Eupyrgota sp.?
Thanks!

Yes, a Eupyrgota. apparently E. luteola Coq.

However, there are two additional nominal species: E. pieli Chen 1948 and E. similis Chen, 1948 of unknown status (synonyms? good species?) in China.
