These must be the spider's eggs and one stage of the larva. Note the newborn baby spider, in the lower left corner of the image.

Good point, Bob...but there's also a larger larva!
The small larva look like newborn baby spiders. But the larger larva, to the right of center, appears more campodeiform...perhaps it's a mantispid 1st instar? Or something else?
