Sinopanamomus crypticus is a species of beetle of the Scarabaeidae family. This species is found in China, where it has only been recorded from the Gaoligong mountain range in western Yunnan.

Adults reach a length of 3.1 mm. The dorsum is largely dark brown, with a vague light brown pattern on the elytra and pronotum.

Etymology

The name of the species is derived from the Greek root crypt- (meaning hidden) and refers to the secretive habits of this rare species under a highly closed forest in mid-high elevation in Western Yunnan.[1]
