Page on 24-spot Ladybird
Subcoccinella vigintiquatuorpunctata

Great to have a page live!!!

It was introduced into North America some time last century with the first records from Pennsylvania in 1972. In the Britain it is more common in the south.

Habitat - still to do. Don't forget to correct section title on page...

24-pointed Ladybird Beetle (EOL Common Name)

Book template

Wingless alt wording: Many 24-spot ladybirds are wingless and unable to fly, there being no hind wings for flying although the modified forewings that form the wing cases (elytra) are still present. A recent study predicts that flightlessness is increasing, with some populations including no winged individuals.
