For sure Anisoplia sp., you have four species in Spain.

Thanks Glaphyrus, I suppose the four species are austriaca, baetica, remota and villosa, right? I was almost sure that is not the extremely rare B. lineata despite being labeled as this species.

Surely not Blitopertha lineata. That pattern is typical of several specie of Anisoplia.

I think it's A. baetica or A. villosa.
Anisoplia austriaca doesn't have this colour pattern and A. remota have a longitudinal sulci on the scutellum (absent in this photo).

The four species are depressa, baetica, remota and villosa, austriaca is not included.
Given the elytra looking almost glabrous I would exclude remota and villosa.

You can not mistake Blitopertha with Anisoplia, as the first has a normal clypeus, the latter trumpet-like, as in this photo.
