The 7-spot ladybird is the species the adult state of which in general is recognized as the ladybird. A larval state is hardly ever associated with a beetle, an certainly eggs are even more difficult to allocate to a beetle. The life cycle of ladybirds passes all possible states that an insect can go through: an egg, a larva, a chrysalis and finally the adult insect. It takes them a month or two, depending on conditions such as food resources and weather conditions. Mostly, they can produce a generation per year, in good conditions two generations may be produced. |
