Field Notes

Description:

A strange and beautiful structure that looks like some kind of Spider's Egg Sac. It seems to be made of silk and there are strands of silk visible around the spiky tops. The underside was flat and attached to the underside of a Fuscia leaf with silk. There was no other sign of a spider anywhere.

Habitat:

In a garden in the center of San Cristobal de Las Casas, 2,200 meters.
