Saw these two having a nap on my Ilex aquifolium 'Silver Queen' (which
seems to be pushing berries so in fact must be I.a 'Silver King'). One
is likely the invasive Harlequin Ladybird (Harmonia axyridis) the other
I counted 14 spots but can't pinpoint the species.

They both look perfectly innocent to me.
Which one do you think might be a Harlequin, as a matter of interest?


Apart from size there are loads of different colour combinations see
http://www.harlequin-survey.org/reco...istinction.htm

And most of them are not going to be them are they? So many varieties of
red/black/ black/red/ yellow/black are ours so nothing to panic about.
