Striped Lady Beetle - Paranaemia vittigera
Arivaca Cienega, Buenos Aires NWR, Pima County, Arizona, USA
May 7, 2006
Size: 2 or 3mm
Beetles were "grazing" on what I think were Frog Fruit Flowers growing next to board walk in the Cienega. Observed around 10 A.M. Temperature probably around 80 degrees. Flowers were growing in a couple feet of water.

Striped lady beetle.
These are striped lady beetles (family Coccinellidae). I think we have images in the guide already, from California, so please add yours to that page. Thanks for sharing.
