At first sight I thought it was looking a little like the Thea 22-punctata , but it's just a little bigger and the colour and spots don't really match. The colour on the photo is like I saw it; the thorax and head being cream-white-yellowish with black dots and the abdomen being peach-coloured with black dots. The surface it was on is not very informative as it was a plastic, bit dirty public trash bin. I found it on the countryside some days ago..
I know that the Harlequin ladybird (Harmonia axyridis) can be highly variable, so could this be one its outfits?
CLOSED: strange ladybird..
It doesn't match with any of these;

try asian lady bettle
Thanks imzadi, but no its not an Asian lady Beetle (Harmonia axyridis), I've looked at so many by now and none matches mine, it's size is too small for that also (appr. 3-3,5mm).
I found out that it is Oenopia conglobata
