    Are these the same as the ones we get in Essex UK? I love the picture. I guess the ladybird was hoping it wouldn't get noticed! Posted 9 years ago

The Twenty-two Spot Ladybird

"Psyllobora vigintiduopunctata", the Twenty-two Spot Ladybird (often written as 22-spot Ladybird), is a 3–5 mm long ladybird commonly found in Europe. Unlike most other ladybirds which feed on aphids, "P. 22-punctata" eats mildew — especially from umbellifers and low-growing shrubs.
