https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coccinellidae Coccinellid larvae are mostly elongate, sometimes ovate and weakly to strongly flattened; with square heads. They are covered in hairs or setae, the abdominal segments, in particular, each having six divided into pairs, and one to three segmented antennae. Their colouration varies from grey, blue-grey, grey-brown or brown and spotted with white, yellow, red or orange or cryptic against vegetation or substrate. They tend to brighten as they get closer to adulthood. Legs generally long and slender. Head with 3 ocelli on either side. Larvae tend to be active insectivores, fungivores or herbivores.
