Field Notes

Description:

There are thousands of species of ladybugs (family Coccinellidae) across the world, with over 450 different species native to North America. They come in a range of colors including orange, red, yellow, pink, brown or black. They can have many spots, few spots or no spots at all. We see their cute likeness on everything from consumer products to company logos. We know them best as ladybugs, but other countries call them ladybirds. Scientists (ever the sticklers for proper terminology) prefer to call them lady beetles since they do not fall into the category of “true bugs” in terms of entomology.
