Trichiotinus affinis
Adult chafers eat the leaves and flowers of many deciduous trees, shrubs and other plants, but rarely cause any serious damage. Chafer beetles also act as pollinators for many species of flowering trees.
Looks like a cross between a bee and a beetle. Found many of these rolling around in pollen near a lake in Sudbury Ontario.
