Zelus sp.
Very tiny egg mass - About 4 mm (just under 3/16") in diameter with each cell about .5 mm. Found under an American Holly (Ilex opaca) leaf. Appears to be old, possibly from last year.
asergio, yes mostly likely from last season. It's unfortunate I missed the live action ;)
These eggs seem to be quite old, since they are well worn. Fresh eggs look like this:
