Series of shots of shieldbug eggs on the underside of a rhododendron leaf in the garden.
After 14 days only 3 of the eggs had hatched each producing a tiny parasitic Scelionid wasp.
The next day everything had disappeared including the egg cases.

Maybe heavy rain washed them away?

Agree. Fascinating
Lovely series of photos Brian

Is that last one showing a hatched insect? Looks too big for those little eggs

Thanks for the comments :)


Richard yes, that's one of the Scelionid parasitic wasps that came out of the eggs instead of shieldbug nymphs.
