Ladybug 2 Belt Buckle, Coccinellidae is a family of beetles, known as ladybirds. They are found worldwide, with over 5,000 species described, more than 450 native to North America alone. Ladybugs are small insects, ranging from 1 mm to 10 mm (0.04 to 0.4 inches), and are commonly yellow, orange, or scarlet with small black spots on their wing covers, with black legs, head and antennae. They are generally considered useful insects as many species feed on aphids or scale insects, which are pests in gardens, agricultural fields, orchards, and similar places. Some people consider seeing them or having them land on one's body to be a sign of good luck to come, and that killing them presages bad luck. beltbucklepictures.com
