#2707 - Adalia bipunctata - Two-spotted Ladybeetle

Native to most of the Northern Hemisphere, but widely introduced to other parts of the world as a biocontrol agent. In Aotearoa it's an important predator of pine and spruce aphids, although it wasn't introduced for that - they just showed up in Christchurch in 1936.

This is the most common form, but there are others ranging from uncommon to exceedingly rare, including melanistic forms, a spotless form, a four-banded form, nine to twelve spotted forms, and a "cross-hatched" form.

Queenstown, Aotearoa New Zealand.

Just like with the last wandering percher, It took a couple tried before i could get close enough for a photo. After the first couple tries it seems to realized i won't do anything, and sits still for some nice photos :>
