Coelophora inaequalis, the variable ladybird, common Australian lady beetle or common Australian ladybug is a ladybird species endemic to Australia, Oceania and Southern Asia. C. inaequalis was introduced into Florida and Hawaii as a biological control agent to combat Sipha flava, the yellow sugarcane aphid.
Adults reach a length of about 3.70-5.20 mm. The pronotum is yellow with a black area at the base. The elytron is yellow with four or five black spots. The variable ladybird gets its name from the black markings on the adult elytra, that vary from one individual to another.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Variable Ladybird Beetle is recorded against all the insects logged in Denpasar (5 verified sightings), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
