Specimen was flying around Brachylaena discolor, then observed landing on the old flowers of the plant, where it appeared to lay eggs. It did this several times on different clumps of old Brachylaena discolor flowers. A clump of tiny elongated eggs were seen under one leaf of the Brachylaena close to where two or three Wooley Legs eggs may have been laid. Suspect this was a group of aphid eggs? |
