I think those are called "junebugs".

Jujubes (pronounced "ju ju bees") are shaped like their eggs, and named after them, although technically not a "bee". Or "ju" for that matter.

No one has ever seen a Junebug. However their reputation has achieved mythical proportions, because it is mythical.

I think I've gone over the line, dateline, here.

- Fun. Dragonflies, though, live up to 6 months, and eat mosquitoes. (n/t) - Bowser - 9/6/2006 6:54:49 PM
  - The writer might have gotten them confused with "mayflies." (n/t) - Tom Brosz - 9/6/2006 6:57:52 PM
    - True. Mayflies don't even last a month. Go figure. - Bowser - 9/6/2006 7:50:50 PM
      - I suppose you could call them "dayflies." - Tom Brosz - 9/6/2006 9:28:24 PM

        The red ones "Mayday" flies. Or is that the dying ones? (n/t) - Bowser - 9/7/2006 1:00:12 AM
        
        Most mayflies I've seen are green - Tom Brosz - 9/7/2006 1:26:03 AM
        
        Duh! The live in nature! Maybe those are "day in May flies". (n/t) - Bowser - 9/7/2006 1:47:41 AM
