Hi Ray Perry, I'd say Eulophidae - probably the same issue regarding species ID as with chalcid wasps in general and the pteromalids in particular (referring to your other post). Best regards, Marc |

Thanks Marc It really helps me just to know the family, even if it's "possibly", because then I can read up more about the little fella. Warm Regards Ray |

It's Pteromalidae subfamily Miscogasterinae. Perhaps a Lamprotatus species? |
