Thanks Chris, sadly I didn't notice the egg until after I'd set the specimen, otherwise I would have tried to rear it out.

It's interesting as I don't think I have ever seen Coreids affected in this way. I do however often see eggs attached to specimens of Acanthosomatidae (particularly Birch and Parent Bug) which I am sure must be Subclytia.

Cheers
Tristan
