orange ladybug

Tangerine-hued spotted insect

An orange ladybug is a ladybug with an orange rather than red shell.

The term most often refers to the Asian lady beetle, an introduced species sometimes considered a pest—unlike native red ladybugs, they can bite, emit a foul odor, and invade homes in large numbers.

I thought it was a regular ladybug until I noticed it was orange.
