That is a great description Leonardo :) No Faredin, the one I have is Calvia quatuordec imguttata. Much less exciting than this one!!!
I think you have the same spotting from Sweden!? That's true, it reminds me of tortoise beetle which I never succeeded to find, even though I found the larval stage and have a spotting of it.
What a nice ladybug! I have never seen it live! It has some similarities to a tortoise beetle as well... So cool!
Oh so polite :), then you need to see this one: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/38243034
You're very welcome Faredin, after all the suggestions you gave me, I'm glad I could help you! :)
