It was not until today during a discussion with my dearest Twinkle Dink that I recalled Leary's wonderous artistry.The memories began flooding back to me. His limmericks and drawings brought me such joy. I have rediscovered my favorite author who I shameless and regrettably had forgotten. In an ironic twist, during one of the many talks between Twinkle Dink and myself, he revealed that one of his favorite poems was one called, "The Owl And The Pussycat" which I too have always loved. He could not recall the author's name, nor could I *sigh* .

Common names for this genus and many other related genera in the subfamily Melolonthinae are May beetles, June bugs, and June beetles. They range in size from 12 to 35 mm (0.47 to 1.38 in) and are blackish or reddish-brown in colour, without prominent markings, and often rather hairy ventrally. These beetles are nocturnal, coming to lights in great numbers.
The generic name is derived from the Greek words phyllon (φυλλον), which means "leaf", and phagos (φαγος), which means "eater", with a plural ending.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phyllophaga
