i had researched it for my lady-bug spotting. and tried the same way on this one. (count the points-- go to goolgle image. search for a similair picture and look if there is a latin name--- go with the name to wikipedia) i find the german wikipedia more/ better discribed than the english one. try it again for yours!!
