Is She a Ladybug?

I met this little fellow at my in-laws place in Bukidnon, with the surrounding rice fields and sugarcane fields you'll really get to see many insects around. And I happened to spot this tiny beetle while photographing weeds and flowers in the area.

 
I wonder if this is a ladybug? Accordingly ladybugs have spots on their backs, but thus that color black on this little fellow's back looks like a spot or a strip? What do you think?

  1. It looks like a ladybug to me. You are right, though, it seems to almost have stripes.

  4. It is a very pretty little lady bug...or lady beetle as I called them as a child...and it is a very beautiful photograph. You can even see it's little feet, and are they aphids (his food?) on the stem?
    Welcome to Mandarin Orange Monday and thank you for sharing your pretty, and unusual, lady bug:)
