No, I did not notice! Thank you for pointing that out. I looked at the photo, zoomed in, but I still could not tell. Great photo of the Emperor gum moth. Those eggs are definitely noticeable in your photo.

Superb creature!!! Did you notice the black dot on its back? An egg? Check my infested caterpillar with eggs laid on its back; http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/7998042
