Description
Eurydema ornata can reach a length of 7–8 millimetres (0.28–0.31 in). The body has gray or bright red colors, with black markings. Sometimes it shows the red patches coloured white and yellowish-green. This shield bug sucks the sap of plants, especially crucifers (family Brassicaceae), such as cabbage, cress and radish. It may become a parasite that can damage crops. It overwinters as an adult. The nymph is pale yellow and orange with dark brown or black pronotum and markings on the dorsal side of the abdomen.
Distribution
This species occurs in Europe, North Africa, South and East Asia. It prefers open areas with low vegetation.

gollark: Neither are most other people as far as I can tell.
gollark: It's probably practical if you're serving a model to a ton of people who actually pay for it, or something, but I'm not doing that.
