Good images Katarina, but unfortunately I can't place this one, even to family. Surely either Coccinelloidea or Cucujoidea, but these 2 superfamilies encompass 12 and 21 families respectively, and there are very few images online of the small species (which is most of them). I'll have to investigate in the ANIC.
