      Would (really) help to know when and where this was (month, country) - please?
      These are eggs of some shield bug (Pentatomidae). In England (?!?) (and recently) Palomena prasina would be my top candidate, in late summer Pentatoma rufipes might be a better bet, elsewhere on the world I wouldn't hazard a guess ...

        Hi Arp. I wondered if they were shied bugs. Thank you for confirming. They were found on a kitchen wall in Essex, England yesterday. Posted 7 years ago

The Green shield bug

The green shield bug is a shield bug of the family Pentatomidae. It may also be referred to as a green stink bug, particularly outside of Britain, although the name green stink bug more appropriately belongs to the larger North American stink bug, ''Acrosternum hilare''.
