KTD - Microcentrum
Desoto, Desoto County, Texas, USA
April 1, 2018
Size: 4-5mm
I collected these katydid eggs on my clematis vine on March 10 and brought them inside (probably a mistake) They emerged on April 1. The two on the bottom were "stillborn." I regularly see Neoconocephalus triops and Scudderia furcata in my yard -- not sure if these are either one...Do Scudderia exhibit the black and white antennae this early or do they show up later?

Only Microcentrum and Stilpnochlora have this style of eggs in the US, and Stilpnochlora is restricted to FL

Moved from Katydids.

 
Oh yeah...
I have them too -- just not as often! Thanks for the info!
