i would venture a guess and say that they are Squash Bug eggs. the guys that know more than me should be able to give you a positive id.

Please see if this is what you see on your plant. This is a great reference for problems. I think this was from a link on this site in a message. Great site this is!

I don't recognize those eggs as being from the notorious "big three" but they probably are GOOD. I would carefully remove the leaf & hatch the eggs to find out. But you might also just gently scrape them off so long as you don't drop them.
