Subcoccinella vigintiquatuorpunctata
Due it black point on the pronotal middle, it looks to be Subcoccinella vigintiquatuorpunctata (Linnaeus, 1758), present in BugGuide too:http://bugguide.net/node/view/110842

ladybug lookalikes
thank you, thank you I thought I was loosing my mind no matter what sight I brought up it was showing the wrong bug. Some said it was a cucumber beetle but it looks nothing like it. I'm so glad the few I've crushed were not my friends I was getting worried thanks again.
