What a delightful image. Shows that ladybirds are also pollinators. I know the rule here is that the shiny or glossy ladybirds are beneficial in that they eat things like aphids. The Matt or dull ones are plant eaters. Such as here, the 28 spotted ladybird has a dull matt surface and it ruins any of the family Cucurbit, which is all your pumpkiins, zucchini, cucumbers and melons.
