Homothyrea inornatipennis Gahan, 1903 is the only known Cetoniinae from the Socotra Island (Yemen). Recently collected adults were kept in laboratory conditions and reared. All immature stages (larval instars and pupa) are described in detail and compared with the known larvae of the subtribe Leucocelina. Available data on distribution of this rose chafer are presented.
