Hello, I had it down as the Kidney-spot Ladybird, Chilocorus renipustulatus. then I had second thoughts about the other possible species. I know I should pore...

Good, I hope everyone else is sending off their records! Not a lot of point in speculating on an individual's provenance but many flew over to the south coast...
