A genus of beetles known as the 'June bugs' or 'doodlebugs,' found across temperate and tropical regions.
From Greek 'anomalos' (irregular, uneven), named for the beetles' irregular or unusual features compared to other beetle groups.
Anomala beetles are those shiny green and copper 'June bugs' that bump into porch lights—they were named 'anomala' because they seemed irregular or odd compared to familiar beetles.
