Stinkbug eggs (Pentatomidae )

These were found on a manitoba maple (aka box-elder), and all over the tree were many large green stinkbugs, both adults and nymphs of all sizes, so I would assume the eggs are for that species. Most have hatched, as you can see.

This is fascinating. I like the little "hatches" on top of the eggs where they emerge. Interesting pattern of eggs. V.
