| The Cream-streaked Ladybird first arrived in Britain during the 1930's and has since spread outwards from it's original colonisation site in Suffolk, to reach both Wales and Scotland. This large tree-dwelling Ladybird frequents forested areas where Scots Pine grows. The examples shown were found in March and April 2006 at Sherwood Pines and Budby Common near Edwinstowe. Further observations during 2006 have shown that it is a relatively common species in forested areas. A recently emerged adult is shown in the lower two photographs, showing a complete lack of any red pigmentation at this stage (early August). | ||
