the name for the group of ladybugs and fireflies is Coleoptera.
Aphids, mites, and scale insects are three things that ladybugs [Coccinellidae family] eat.
At night is the time during which fireflies [Lampyridae family] eat. They tend to be nocturnal insects. But that doesn't guarantee that they'll be seen feeding. Adult fireflies may choose to eat plant pollen and insects. Or they choose not to eat at all.
Ladybugs and cockroaches are in the same family (insects) but not the same Genus due to their obvious differences.
Yes, ladybugs [Coccinellidae family] have antennae. They're insects. Specifically, insects have compound eyes; a skeleton that's on the outside of the body; the three main body parts of head, thorax and abdomen; three pairs of jointed legs; and two antennae. The position description applies to insects in general, and to ladybugs in particular in this case.
No, fireflies do not turn into pincher bugs.Specifically, fireflies or lightning bugs belong to the Coleoptera order of beetles. Within that beetle order, they belong to the Lampyridae family. Earwigs belong to the Dermaptera order of insects. They are not beetles.
Yes, ladybugs eat solidified scale. The insects in question (Coccinellidae family) favor such soft-bodied insects as aphids. Carnivorous ladybug species nevertheless tackle such voracious pests as mites and thrips as well as mealybugs and other scale insects.
Assassin bugs, other ladybugs, and stink bugs are insects that like to eat ladybugs. The insects in question (Coccinellidae family) manage to avoid predation because of aposematic body colors that warn of unpleasant scents, tastes, textures. The bright and dark color combinations serve as deterrence for the above-mentioned insects as well as for specific amphibians, arachnids, birds, fungi, parasites and reptiles.
Ladybugs are one insect that eats plant-eating bugs. Thought of as a gift from god.
No, lightning bugs, or fireflies, do not come from worms. They are actually beetles belonging to the family Lampyridae. The larvae of fireflies, often called "glowworms," are similar to worms in appearance but are distinct insects that eventually mature into adult fireflies. Both the larvae and adults are known for their bioluminescence.
Yes, ladybugs can bite a person. The insects in question (Coccinellidae family) have chewing mouthparts. They also have spurs on their legs that may give a person the sensation of being mildly irritated or even preyed upon.
Yes, ladybugs eat scale insects.Specifically, the ladybug (Coccinellidae family) can be considered a most beneficial insect. It contributes beautiful benefits to gardens and lawns because of its cheery colors and pleasing shapes. It also functions as a non-chemical control of such garden pests as aphids, mealbugs, mites, scale insects and thrips.
Those fireflies are under the Hotaru family of flies.
