64 Ladybirds
Fun 'n games. Created this about a year ago as a birthday card for a friend. A new birthday has passed, so I feel I can recycle it now :o)
Not a very representative collection, with plenty of "double species" on it, but it's a fun and variable collection me thinks with Ladybird beetles of various subfamilies and continents, so might as well make it available as public domain here...

I'll add a species listing to the description in due time .... not the most interesting set however. Posted 5 years ago

However, I've arranged with Ferdy that it's okay to "flood" the site with a display of Coccinellid images I have, with different angles and life stages for many species so that others may find these here too, but I'm having a hard time finding the time to sift through the thousands sitting on my disks.

Thanks for the list. Just to make sure that everyone reads them in the right way - row 1 is the top row and numbering in the rows goes from left to right, doesn't it?
Have you ever worked with someone with Arabic background? Mirror images ;) Posted 5 years ago
I'll be adding plenty of species over time, also the ones that I only have bad images for ;o)
