Dag-Rune ZNow, that is a ladybird beetle with an attitude
This large ladybird beetle was a visitor on the plant next to me enjoying morning coffee in Siem Reap, Cambodia.
I consider such visits as a forecast of a lucky day. Well, I was in Siem Reap, heading out to visit the Angkor Archaeological Park. That is always a happy experience.
Lucky biodiversity
There are 15 registered variants of Ladybug or Ladybird beetles in Cambodia. Probably there are many more. Neighbouring Viet Nam has 220 variations of Ladybugs registered so far. And the nature, flora and fauna of those two countries are equally rich and exciting.
When it comes to biodiversity, Cambodia is a well known hotspot in Southeast Asia. And there are still discoveries to be made.
Like in most of the world, these Ladybugs are considered to be a sign of good luck here too.
Natural pest control
Unless of course you are one of the insects lady bugs like to feed upon, as they are natural pest control animals. Aphids, scales, mealy bugs, white flies, mites and thrips which often is a threat to flora and micro fauna can be effectively controlled and kept at an acceptable level when lady bugs are taking action.
They are an amazingly effective natural way of handling and reducing the threats from pests.
The family Coccinellidae is a large family of lady beetles. Globally there are 6 000 variants divided into 360 under groups.
And this one was on the larger side.
