Germar described a form with two dark spots on the pronotum that are only recognizable with suitable lighting called
Buprestis inculta. It was originally described as a separate species and is now considered a synonym of
Anthaxia umbellatarum. In 1900, Abeille de Perrin described a species of beetle found in North Africa named
Anthaxia domina, which is now considered as the subspecies
Anthaxia umbellatarum domina . ==Description==
