It appears to match Henosepilachna vigintioctopunctata but according to ALA it hasn't been found as far south as Albury so I'm reluctant to confirm.

Its actually in Wodonga technically Alison but hey - close. I will check there were no more pics. I suspect not because I got distracted by the native bee!
