Moved
Moved from Lady Beetles.
Thanks Abigail. I thought that was going to be the case, but wanted your opinion. Plus this is probably a female.

definitely female
She has a black head and pronotum - males in the signata group have white heads and pronotal margins.

Hyperaspis signata group
Unfortunately the spp. in this group can't be told apart without dissecting a male! We've got a BG node for "unidentified signata group" if you want to move these there.
