I am not sure whether this is a Diptera or a Hymenoptera. Very small, around 1.5 mm. The antennae look a little bit suspicious for a Brachycera.

This is clearly no Diptera. It is a parasitic Chalcodoidea wasp. And this is a very difficult group with many undescribed species...

It has the feel of Encyrtidae, but my guess is as good as anyone else's.

Thx.

Yes, Hymenoptera is very difficult. Especially the parasitic wasps.

Well, with the build of this species, it is clear that it is Chalcidoidea. The family then becomes tricky, but the shape of the antennae (especially the last flagellar segments) resembles that of other Encyrtidae I have seen.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
