Pelidnota punctata
A large orange beetle with black spots. Resembles a Junebug, but around 3 times the size.
First time I recall ever seeing one of these beetles. Thought it was just an extremely large Junebug at first. It was amusing to watch it chase a dobsonfly in circles around the cone I found it on.
