Pernattia pusilla?

Not Pernattia pusilla, their larvae is much more colourful. I am not at all sure what that is. I think it need to go in the 'thingy' category

I don't think it is. I would only POSSIBLY consider a dead/somewhat decomposed lep (immature)

OK, Please suggest a category,

@ibaird @WendyEM it was kind of crusty, like when a gall dries out. It had affected the margin of the lead too which had me believing that this was a series of eggs or larvae within the leaf or eating the leaf. Happy to be wrong if so, but I didn't get the impression this was a dead caterpillar.
