Hi Leanne, just came across something else ...
Do a web search for "net casting spider egg" and see what images you come up with. Cheers Andrea

Hi Leanne, I found a similar egg case (black and white in colour, on a long thread attached to a branchlet) and we hatched it out to an Ichneumon wasp. That's a place to start anyway. Cheers Andrea
