User's notes
<2mm. I took some austracantha minax egg sacs home and cut one open, and left the others intact. They were in a covered glass jar. A day or so later a couple of these appeared with more appearing the following day. Slight blue-green colour, no spots or markings on the wings, wings reach the end of their body when at rest.
