Something is wrong

Something is wrong with this ladybug. I`ve seen black ones and yellow ones But never with white spots. Maby he`s in disguise or he was last in line and black paint has done.
very funny Pyrrula,and i have never seen a lady bug with these colour markings,i agree Mother Nature must have run out of black lol

I found this when I looked it up -- guess he fell from a tree?

"The Cream-spotted Lady Beetle below also belongs to our most common species. Yet it is not often seen, for it lives high up in trees. Occasionally it inhabits lower shrubs and plants. The adults are seen almost all year round, for they overwinter. Best chances of seeing this species is in autumn, when it regularly falls down with leaves and is seen climbing back to trees. The spots are almost invariably arranged the same way. In total each shield has seven of them: one in the front, followed by three, usually almost in a stright line. Next are two dots and a single spot makes the number seven. The species is quite variable when it comes to size though: small ones may be just 4 mm, big ones 6 mm. Both the adults and the larvae eat aphids and such."
