Leaf Footed Bug Eggs

State Game Lands #249

These golden eggs were laid by a true bug (Heteroptera) known as Leaf-footed bug (Euthochtha galeator).
The host plant here is Swamp MIlkweed.

i just found something that looks the same as these so i am assuming it came from this bug. i scraped them off my plant because i didnt know if it would kill the plant or not.

Great shot! I often wondered whose eggs those little jewels were in my garden. I forgot to look it up. Thanks!

It is not the goose after all that lays the golden eggs. I'll have to look out for these they are amazing.
