Harmonia axyridis
Spots range from 0 -22. 7-8 mm long. Body shape is very domed. Originally native to east Asia, introduced to North America and Europe to control aphids and scale insects.
Now often considered a pest because they overwinter indoors, and because of the smell left behind when they are smushed. Info from Wikipedia. Phone image. Camera picture to be uploaded later!
