Description:	Abstract: Several species of insects in the family Melolonthidae are known in the world as important soil pests because their larvae feed on roots of cultivated plants. Recently, in the “Cerrado” (savannah) region of Federal District and Goiás State, Brazil, severe damage was verified on vegetables and corn caused by larvae of beetles of this family. The beetle species was identified as Aegopsis bolboceridus (Thomson).
