Egg question
Are these the eggs laid by the mantisfly that you have pictures of? I had never seen a mantisfly until yesterday, I'm just curious about the larvae and it looks like the eggs look very much like lacewing eggs. Thanks!

Yes
she laid the eggs in the collection container before I had a chance to photograph her. These eggs never hatched.
