 Probably yes as i found them amoung parasitoids of the almond bark beetle. I guess in the litterature it is condsidered as predator of bark beetle. Can i found some key to Palearctic /North african species?

 With such splendid green coloration (as it is apparent from the second picture) it should be Lamprolonchaea smaragdi.
