Coccinella septempunctata
Its elytra are of a red colour, but punctuated with three black spots each, with one further spot being spread over the junction of the two, making a total of seven spots, from which the species derives both its common and scientific names (from the Latin septem = "seven" and punctus = "spot"
common in Europe, repeatedly introduced to N. America to reduce aphid numbers
I was looking over my houseplants that I had brought in from outside last week when I spotted this on one of the leaves.
Lat: 43.09, Long: -79.09
