Does anyone know what these small black bugs are. There are quite a few on my night blooming jasmine today, I have not seen them before. Just want to know if they are friend or foe.
thanks!

These could be nymphs of stink bugs (Hemiptera/Heteroptera: Pentatomidae), but a clearer image would be helpful.

I found some egg cases with little guys a lot like this popping out, with yellow spots on them. I will try to include photo but I am new at Dave's Garden and not sure I know how. I want to know what it is too?

These appear to be very young stink bug nymphs. This family includes both plant-feeding pests and beneficial predators; at their small size, I would hesitate to attempt a more specific identification.
