Loew's Lady Beetle (Scymnus loewii) On my Winged Sumac tree (Rhus copallinum) at a mixed forest edge. It was a fast runner (and not interested in photos), so I&#039;m so glad I got a couple of shots! This seems to be a pretty rare find--and definitely a first time for me seeing anything like it before. <br />
