This nice Curinus Ladybird...
Looks really big and gives us a reliable scale. The yellow Pseudomyrmex (there are several very similar species of them) are appreciably smaller than introduced, red and black P. gracilis. Functional ocelli, present also on workers in this genus, are well visible on this pic.
