Lady Beetles (Coccinellidae)

Lady beetles are probably the most familiar of all beetles, and maybe of all insects. They are popular in children's books and pictures, in nursery rhymes, and even as a motif on dishware, t-shirts, toys, etc. There are many different types and while most are variations of red and black, some are other colours.
