Coccinellidae, Epilachninae
The Epilachninae are a subfamily of the family of ladybird beetles, the Coccinellidae, in the order Coleoptera. Superficially, they look much like other ladybirds in the larger subfamily Coccinellinae, but they differ importantly in their biology, in that the members of the subfamily are largely or completely herbivorous instead of predatory.
