scarab larvae, scarab grubs
The terms "bicho bolo", "coró", and "pão-de-galinha" apply to ANY beetle larva of the huge family Scarabaeidae (60,000+ species described). You can refer to them using the general terms "scarab larvae" (plural: the singular is larva) or "scarab grubs". This is from my own experience, after having taught college Entomology courses for over 18 years.

potato beetle (Dyscinetus planatus)
The scientific name is correct. It's a beetle that infests potato crops. I couldn't find the correct name in English, but a synonym is "bicho bolo".

: Just google for "scarab larvae" or "scarab grubs" and then click on images; see my explanation below; your answer is correct, though.

Os prejuízos causados por larvas do “pão de galinha” no desenvolvimento da cana são: enfraquecimento da planta, menor vigor e maior suscetibilidade da lavoura a agentes patogênicos. No plantio, as larvas atacam as gemas dos toletes, o que compromete a germinação provocando falhas e redução de perfilhos. Em canaviais formados as larvas provocam a destruição das raízes e atingem a base dos colmos, resultando na morte da planta. Tanto no plantio como em canaviais formados a praga se manifesta em reboleiras. Na fase adulta, os insetos praticamente não se alimentam e a função é de acasalamento e disseminação das espécies.

Henrique Serra
: I have to disagree here. These are typically known in the agricultural industry as ANY grubs of the family Scarabaeidae. The subfamily Dynastinae is but one of many families in that huge Scarabaeidae family. You cannot be very specific here.
