#67900 Identification -- Ululodes sp.
#67902 Identification -- Ululodes sp.
This is a group of fertile eggs or egg shells (white) and recently-hatched first instar larvae of an owlfly of the genus Ululodes. Two Ululodes species are currently recorded from New Jersey, quadripunctatus and macleayanus, and it could be either of these.

 
Thanks for the info
Are the adults of the two species easily distinguished from each other? When will they be flying?

Amazing
This is the third series of hatchling owlflies in the past month. I don't think they had ever been photographed here before that.
