Today I am sharing two species of insects, the first is Coccinella transversalis and the second is a ladybug (coccinella transversalis). I found them at the hilly location of the village of Cot Girek, Lhokseumawe a few days ago.

Coccinella transversalis, commonly known as the transverse ladybird or transverse lady beetle is a species of ladybird beetle found from India across southern and southeastern Asia to Malesia and Australia. It is not to be confused with Coccinella transversoguttata, a widespread species in Europe and North America also known as the transverse ladybird. The alternative vernacular of small transverse ladybird may be used for C. transversalis in instances where these two species are discussed together.

Dysdercus cingulatus is a species of true ladybugs in the family Pyrrhocoridae. Dysdercus cingulatus is a pest of cotton plants. Mature and old nymphs eat the bolls that emerge and the cotton seeds that will ripen.
