Remarks: Hippodamia variegata originated in the Palaearctic region. However, because it is considered an efficient aphidophagous lady beetle, it has been spread globally ( Soleimani & Madadi 2015). When food is plentiful, Hippodamia variegata and Coccinella septempunctata do not compete for aphid prey, and they were often found together feeding on the same aphids on the same weeds.
