Nitidula is a genus of sap-feeding beetles in the family Nitidulidae. There are more than 20 described species in Nitidula.[1][2][3] Some species breed in carrion while others are associated with later stages of decay in mammalian corpses[4] and can be used in forensic investigations (e.g., Nitidula carnaria, N. flavomaculata).[5]
