Phyllophaga (June Bug) These beetles are nocturnal, coming to lights in great numbers. The adults are chafers, feeding on foliage of trees and shrubs. The larvae (called white grubs) feed on the roots of grasses and other plants. The insects pupate underground in the fall and emerge as adults the following spring. Chafer grubs feed below ground for 3-4 years before changing into adult beetles. The adult beetles are very clumsy, both on land and in the air.
