I wanted to correct myself, all the ladybugs in the video are Harmonia axyridis. I did not realize that Harmonia axyridis has a red/black color variation.

thanks,These insects feed on Larvae, and white flies and scale insects and bugs farinae and hatching eggs and talk to many of the squamous wings.

Fascinating video. I see two species: Adalia bipunctata and Harmonia axyridis. What are the ladybugs eating?
