Saint-George ribbon (or the similar soviet guard ribbon) used as a rallying sign by pro-Russian forces in the Ukraine conflict. The black and orange stripes of the ribbon are likened to the elytron of the Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata, in Russian колорадский жук).
Сепаратисты вышли на марш с флагами СССР, России и огромной колорадской лентой.
Separatists marched with flags of the USSR, Russia and a huge potato-beetle-ribbon.
