Came to black light at night. I've had this photo around for a long time thinking I'd eventually run across a similar photo. No luck so far.

Polyphylla
It is in the genus Polyphylla. My best guess of the species would be either P. crinita or P. decemlineata. Both species are fairly similar, however.
