That's correct Mark. We call it Salagubang here in the Philippines. Thanks.

Here's one that looks closer to me.. and from your part of the world Leucopholis sp. http://salagubang.net/images/gallery_pics/sca_c0926.jpg found at http://salagubang.net/pages/gallery/gallery_sca_melolonthinae.html

Hi Annie. Can you please provide some reference links to support your ID? As far as I can discover the name you have on this one doesn't seem to be in the Philippines. Also it doesn't match other images on the web http://bugguide.net/node/view/582559 Note the lack of setae and the paired ridges on the inner margins of the elytra.
