scarab, possibly Cyclocephala lurida - Cyclocephala
Monks Island, Harford County, Maryland, USA
July 7, 2018
Size: 11-12 mm
Measurement of 11 mm for total body length was taken post-mortem with head in tucked downward, so the "live" length is probably closer to 12 mm. Elytral setae restricted to posterior and margins (least dense along anterolateral margin). More photos available if needed -- I took about 50 of them.
