Yes lacewing eggs, probably belong to the family Chrysopidae

Thanks for your comment Roger. I was involved in research on the silk of the green lacewing egg stalk quite a few years back , so I was familiar with what they looked like, but also wasn't sure if any other lacewings in Neuroptera had eggs on similar stalks.

The other families of lacewings have stalkless eggs except for the Nymphidae that are arranged in a horsehoe shape, very photogenic Shoko.
