13-Spot Ladybeetle - Hippodamia tredecimpunctata

13-Spot Ladybeetle - Hippodamia tredecimpunctata
Richards Rd, just W. of Prosser, Benton County, Washington, USA
May 15, 2007
This species is getting more common in our garden in recent years (I never noticed it there until a couple of years ago). It rivals C.septempunctata for most abundant ladybeetle during spring these days.
