Anomala sulcatula, commonly known as the Philippine chafer, is a species of shining leaf chafers in the genus Anomala. It is considered as a pest as its larvae feed on sugarcane, rice, corn and maize.
An adult Philippine chafer has an ovate body whose length ranges from 14-18 mm. It has a slightly metallic near-black brown color.[1] The larva of a Philippine chafer has a C-shaped, cylindrical, white-colored body.
Anomala sulcatula is native to the Philippines but has been introduced to Guam, the northern Mariana Islands and Borneo as an invasive species.[2]
