  I can't for the life of me think of a reason why such a pattern on eggs would be a plus in the survival of the fittest, but hey - they do look kind of cute ;o) Posted 4 years ago

  Thanks Christine, these are quite small - a good deal smaller than the usual Pentatomidae-Eggs so I had to zoom in quite a bit making it almost impossible to get the focus right over the total line up ... Posted 4 years ago
