Chrysopid egg

Chrysopid egg
Spring, Harris County, Texas, USA
October 24, 2016
This may be Ceraeochrysa smithi. The egg was one of a spiral cluster. Stalks had droplets on them. Note chorion pattern or sculpturing. The non-spiral Chrysopid eggs I've seen haven't had this characteristic, at least that I could see.

Second pic is the hatchling.
