Very pleased to find an Arboreal Ladybird (Rhyzobius chrysomeloides) in Staffordshire VC39 today. A few quick taps of Cotoneaster next to my car at Stafford Services M6 (South) did the trick. #InconspicuousLadybirds #MicroLadybirds #StaffordshireWildlife

The ladybird highlight of today's walk. What looks to be a new population of Epaulet Ladybird (Rhyzobius chrysomeloides) found on the other side of Newcastle this time. Once again, by checking trusty Pinus mugo! #microladybirds #ladybirds

After finding Epaulet Ladybird (Rhyzobius chrysomeloides) at Silverlink a few backs back, I decided to pop back today to see if they could be found in further squares. Success! #microladybirds #ladybirds
