Coccinellidae, Coccinellinae, Anatis sp. and either Anatis labiculata or Anatis mali. I slightly would tend to Anatis labiculata, based on the link above and the nice match. Maybe you ask bugguide? http://bugguide.net/node/view/930758/bgimage http://bugguide.net/node/view/642075/bgimage http://bugguide.net/node/view/370731
