Nephus quadrimaculatus
Over the last couple of weeks the Leicestershire ladybird scene has gone a bit mad (see: NatureSpot Lockdown Challenge - Operation Ladybird). Trying not to be left out, on my daily exercise yesterday I gave the local Ivy a damn good thrashing, and was rewarded with my target species, Nephus quadrimaculatus. The first VC55 record for this species was only a couple of weeks ago, but now they're popping up all over the County, which only goes to show ... seek and ye shall find?
Today I will be mostly processing all the spiders :-)
Rhyzobius chrysomeloides
