Pink Crown Saw this stuff, probably egg mass/nest or cocoon of Spider from the genus Gasteracantha.<br /> What mystified me was the &#039;pink crown&#039; above the egg mass, from the picture, you can see that it is an extension of the yellow part.

What mystified me was the 'pink crown' above the egg mass, from the picture, you can see that it is an extension of the yellow part.
