The Asian Lady Beetle (Harmonia axyridis) is the most commonly recorded, with 2,134 verified observations — about 64% of all ladybugs reported in Delaware. If you spot a ladybug here, it is statistically most likely to be this one.

Delaware also hosts less common ladybugs such as Polished Lady Beetle, Fourteen-spotted Lady Beetle and Twice-stabbed Lady Beetle, each recorded fewer than 100 times. These are the species worth a second look when you are out, since a sighting is more notable.
