Growth and Development in Lady Beetles [PDF]
, 2018 Living in a group can potentially put stress on an animal. This is particularly true for species like Hippodamia convergens, the convergent lady beetle, the larvae of which will cannibalize each other when food sources are limited.

A ladybug exploration strategy for distributed adaptive coverage control [PDF]
2008 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2008 A control strategy inspired by the hunting tactics of ladybugs is presented to simultaneously achieve sensor coverage and exploration of an area with a group of networked robots. The controller is distributed in that it requires only information local to each robot, and adaptive in that it modifies its behavior based on information in the environment ...

2D NMR-spectroscopic screening reveals polyketides in ladybugs [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2011 Small molecules of biological origin continue to yield the most promising leads for drug design, but systematic approaches for exploring nature’s cache of structural diversity are lacking. Here, we demonstrate the use of 2D NMR spectroscopy to screen a library of biorationally selected insect metabolite samples for partial structures ...

, 2023 Curious about ladybug waste? Wonder no more! Discover the intriguing world of how ladybugs manage their bodily functions. Unlike humans, ladybugs have unique ways of conserving water and eliminating waste. They don’t pee like we do, but instead, excrete waste through specialized organs called Malpighian tubules. Those yellow droplets you see?
