user posted imageSeven-point ladybug (Coccinella septempunctata L.). Very useful and the most common type of family. Larvae and adults feed on aphids. Beetles overwinter. It is found everywhere in the lower reaches of the Volga. Imported from Europe to America to control local pests. These beetles probably got the name "ladybugs" for pest control, because where there are a lot of cows, there is a good harvest.
The picture was taken in the Astrakhan region.

About the origin of the name "Ladybug" in different languages in the "Nature" was once published an article by I. A. Zakharov. More precisely, the article is not entirely on this topic, but this issue was discussed in the introductory part.
