HARLEQUIN LADYBIRD - HARMONIA AXYRIDIS SPECTABILIS

Ryan spotted, yeah yeah bad joke, this stunningly marked Ladybird. Despite seeing many as a child and being aware of the Harlequins invasions of several years back and not seeing this before I did think it was likely to be the invader.

I just was not aware that they could look like this though, lol





The following did look very much to be a Chrysalis of a Ladybird and then spotting the Red on Black Harlequin it was immediately obvious it was that.



Harlequin Ladybird larva and all three found within a few feet of each other.
