Non-ProZ.com Jun 2, 2005:
Thank you so much for this great research . . . perhaps this might also be a 'June bug', as it is known in some (well, at least one) countries. It also looks like a scarab . . .

Note--the verb is missing in the clause (dat sporen . . . ) Also missing in the original.

The fat white larval stage of the Cockchafer Beetle is quite destructive to cereal and other grass plant roots.
They are usually found in rough grazing or cereal crops and in new gardens.
