User's notes

I rescued this thread (about 7cm) from the Pseudomantis albofimbriata and put it in a jar meaning to photograph properly the next morning and forgot about it. Last night I noticed minute larvae so I am guessing they belong to the moth being eaten by the mantid. If the id is right, according to LBH, the eggs should have beens in a pile of about 20, and covered with brown hairs. Perhaps the mantid unrolled the clump or the moth didn't have time to form the clump. Or the thread of effs and the dead moth might not be related.
