  abstract = {{W}e present an updated checklist of the ladybird beetle fauna of {N}ew {C}aledonia. {F}ifty species have been tracked from literature and collections, but six should be removed from the list as they represent false records, invalid or unestablished species: {C}occinella boletifera {F}auvel, {H}armonia conformis ({B}oisduval), {M}enochilus duodecimpunctatus ({F}auvel), {M}icraspis lineola ({F}abricius), {O}rcus australasiae {B}oisduval, and {C}urinus coeruleus ({M}ulsant). {A}fter our investigations, the current described ladybird beetle fauna totals 44 named species, belonging to 18 valid genera. {T}he endemism rate is 47.7% (21 species), with one endemic subgenus, {S}cymnus ({C}aledonus). {B}ased on comparisons of the coccinellid faunas of surrounding regions, the {N}ew {C}aledonian fauna has affinities with {A}ustralia and {P}apua {N}ew {G}uinea more than with the rest of the {P}acific area. {A}t least 19 species (43.2%) seem to have been introduced by human activities (either deliberately or accidentally).},
