Micraspis flavovittata is a species of ladybird of the genus Micraspis.[1] The species was described by Crotch in 1874.[2] The species was presumed to become extinct until an amateur naturalist[3] found about 40 individuals of the species in the Discovery Bay Coastal Park in western Victoria.[4][5]
