Please help. I found these eggs on the underside of my Habanero seedling plant this morning. I'd like to know which insect they belong to: Beneficial or Pest? Thanks!

They look like the eggs that a moth or butterfly would lay. (Have no idea what species.)
The caterpillar would hatch and begin eating the leaf.

If you did not send out an ivitation to turn your plant into a maternity ward, SQUISH! Just 2 cents from the peanut gallery.
