Lacewing eggs
-37.8142, 144.963
Field Notes
Description:
Small white eggs suspended off individual tethers.
Habitat:
Found underneath an outdoor table. Usually found on the underside of leaves or branches.
Notes:
The individual threads ensure the newly hatched young don't eat each other. Apparently you can buy the eggs as a form of biological pest control - the young are also known as 'aphid lions'. I must have a fairly healthy garden :)
