About 7-10 mm. The third type of this bug found in the reserve. No ID yet. This one is quite similar from this http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/190.... But it has more brown spots with black borders.
Two individual bugs in this spotting. One was found in a mixed forest, thicket area (Python pool, marked on the map for the spotting), and the other one was found in a similar environment but about 25 km away from the first spotting. (Northern part of the Reserve, the Gorge)

Thank you Hanna!
Vi ses snarare än snart! Kommer hem på Fredag! Jag gissar att det kommer bli dagliga turer på Enköpingsåsen och mälaren. Försommaren ifjol bjöd på många överraskningar att fotografera. Kul att jaga bugs tillsammans :DDD
Fantastic picture as usual! Unfortunately i don't know what this is either, but a beautiful animal.
Vi syns i metropolen Enköping! Det finns en fantastisk "biotop" där vi bor, där det säkert kryllar av härliga små "bugs".
I am glad that you like the critters Cindy, and that you support us with your experience of IDs of the small creatures.
Dotun, it really looks like a version of the picasso bug, thank you for that clue :)
Thank you Harsha, Mr Tom, Mother Lauren Nature and Constansa for your very nice comments.
Love this one Tina!
Wow, what a great looking bug!!!
Beautiful spotting Tina!
Adorable bug! I'm guessing it's a variety of the Picasso bug... http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/206...
:) You're spotting some amazing critters! Thank you for sharing them!
Thank you for your comment Bhagya :)
Cindy, that must be it! Thank you so very much for pointing out the right direction! I appreciate it a lot!
Very pretty bug! My first thought is a Shield-backed Bug.
Beautiful......
Thank you Dan! #3 with my fingers... naah! It is just there for a size reference. I think it looks like a blob is in the way of what really matters... :) But it is a funny looking little bug with a nice pattern!
Cool bug Tina! I like the third photo.
