August 11, 2007, swept on a meadow. Size around 3 mm. Flat and moving fast, easy to take for a small rove beetle.

Hello, Don't you think it could be a winged ant? Pierre Duhem |

Not so modest, then, speak up or we won't hear you.

Hi Dima, According to Jeroen de Rond (who is specialized in Dryinidae and Bethylidae) this is a female of Goniozus. To be more specific: Jeroen de Rond wrote: Goniozus distigmus = Goniozus claripennis (partially), publication in preparation Jan Willem Edited by Jan Willem on 13-08-2007 07:22 |

Lovely photo. Bethylidae were one of my favourite groups when I dabbled in Hymenoptera but I only found 2 and gave up from lack of specimens!! |

there are beautiful photos of Dryinidae here: http://www.waspwe.../index.htm and Bethylidae here: http://www.waspwe.../index.htm in truth... this website is the best for wasps I've ever seen. The photos amaze us in such way that we almost scream in silence. |
