@PixelNenzz thanks for commenting and sharing that you even painted a specimen of the same #species. Indeed this #ladybeetle is very photogenic due to its striking #colors.

For the 5th prompt of #PrinterSolstice2526 odd: This is my 8” x 8” lino block print on delicate Japanese washi paper of a seven-spotted lady beetle, or ladybird or lady bug (Coccinella septempunctata) on a pink apple blossom. Like most blossoms it has an odd number of leaves (5) & like some lady beetles, this one obviously has an odd number of spots.

Trying to name this ladybug since it showed up again 😊
Spots → Spotty → Spochy → Pochy → Pochi… which is kind of like a doggy name in Japan 🤔

Or maybe Dusty, since the close-up photos reveal it’s actually pretty dusty 🤔

Pretty sure this is the same ladybug that I found about a week ago. Looks like drinking water 🤔
I think I should name it 🤔

Today, I’ve noticed a ladybug on the corner of the mirror in the gym locker room, I took her home and placed her on the lemon tree that’s wintering in the kitchen. It’s been a couple of hours, she hasn’t moved from the spot. I’m hoping that she’d wake up in the spring and start eating the scale bugs.😘🐞✨

Time for a native Australian ladybird beetle! This is the large-spotted ladybird (Harmonia conformis), a beautiful pest-devouring machine and garden protector!

A note on terminology: ladybird [beetle], ladybug [beetle], and lady beetle are all synonyms – the name applies to any beetle in family Coccinellidae.

The #22spot #ladybeetle #Psyllobora #vigintiduopunctata (#Cucujiformia) is native to Europe, Asia, and North Africa. The adults and larvae #feed #mycetophagously on #fungi, specifically on powdery #mildews. When threatened, the beetle shows #thanatosis (plays dead) and secretes a defensive secretion. M. Dillen et al. (2017) studied #multitrophic #interactions between ladybird, mildew, and #oak trees.
