Remarks: Coccinella septempunctata is the most widely distributed and common coccinellid in the World, found mostly in the Palaearctic region. Although initially thought to include several species, molecular data show that all these populations belong to one species ( Marin et al. 2010). It is the most common species collected during the present study from the south of the West Bank, but also penetrates near human populations in the Jordan Valley. This species avoids the arid regions (the Saharo Arabian areas). This species is the most well-known one to local people, especially farmers. Its larvae and pupae were observed in more than 50 localities and was the most common species feeding on aphids on both wild plants and agricultural crops in all localities. In Abu Nujaym 2, adults were noted feeding on their own larvae in the absence of aphid prey. In Alkhas, some ants were observed handling larvae of this species.
