Cassidinae, Eggs on Thistle - Cassida rubiginosa

Cassidinae, Eggs on Thistle - Cassida rubiginosa
Plymouth Rock, Winneshiek County, Iowa, USA
June 2, 2014
Size: 1.2+ mm (1 egg)
The egg case was attached to the back side of a Thistle leaf.
As I was looking at this photo I couldn't immediately recognize that these were the same eggs. Note in this photo the 3 lobes on the right hand side of the case. Those 3 lobes can be seen on the left side of the egg case photo.
