Hello! I am afraid of that it may prove to be an undeterminable ichneumonid again, but who knows? Found in my garden, rather smaller sized>>~1,5-2cm? eguzki attached the following image: [72.87Kb] Edited by eguzki on 04-05-2008 19:50 |

Looks like Symphyta, not an ichneumon |

I think Cephidae! Radial Cell subdivised, tibia 1 with spur! Compressed abdomen dorso-laterally! Edited by cthirion on 02-05-2008 23:18 cthirion |

... otherwise, is the spur on tibia 1 distinctive for cephids? |

Thank you Eguski, it has only one year there that I also discovered it, I thought that they were always green!

Apparently it is a pest in orchards with apples and pears! Sue |
