I think I know why they are called June bugs.

They are so dumb and defenseless that they are all killed by the time July
comes around!

No, they don't seem to know how to do enev simple things, like land.
Instead, they seem to fly around until they hit something; then drop out of
the air onto the ground, usually on their back.
