I think this one is a Damaromyia sp. (Pachygastrinae)? The aristate antennae with the third segment globular plus the cross-vein enclosing the discal cell being extremely short. They also have the apical margin of the scutellum distinctly granulated but I can't tell from these pics - do you still have the specimen to check? Cheers Tony Edited by DipTas on 10-01-2013 06:09 |
