Based on historical specimens in the collection of the National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C., 25 species of Coccinellidae (Coleoptera) were collected on Plummers Island between 1902 and 1960. This represents approximately 32% of the recorded fauna of Maryland. Neoharmonia venusta venusta (Melsheimer) was the most commonly collected species.
