Nicely documented. Lacewings use silk stalks to keep the eggs out of reach of predatory insects on the branch. In fact this was one of the simplest and earliest uses of silk in the animal kingdom.

Superb documentation. Very nice information shared by Joshi and Abhishek. Is that a rod? If so how come a rod in the forest? Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
