Small wasp, between 2-3 mm, photographed last Saturday in Charca Suárez de Motril.
What can we know about it?

Might be a Gelis sp (Ichneumonidae).
Some of the females are wingless.

Hi Maherjos & tristram,

For a Ichneumonoidea there are too few antennal segments. This apterous wasp is a Chalcidoidea. Family Pteromalidae subfamily Diparinae. Dipara petiolata is a species I've seen before and looks quite similar. I don't know if other Diparinae and/or Dipara look similar.

Greetings,

Ectemnius

tristam, Ectemnius. Very grateful to both for your help.

Ectemnius, I searched the web for what is identified as Dipara petiolata, and in fact I found some very similar images. https://www.biodi...66580.html
If for your part there is no problem, I will use that identification to identify my search to attract the attention of other specialists who also want to give us their opinion.
I also inform you that I have the insect collected, and I can send it to the specialist who wants to study it in more detail.

Best regards from southern Spain

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
