Hi everybody,

This what I believe is a Ichneumonidae sp was sunbathing on a leaf a couple of weeks ago. It was bigger than most Ichneumonid wasps I've spotted in my garden. Even now I'm beginning to have second thoughts about it being Ichneumonid.... Is it?

I just can't find it in the books.

Can anyone shine a light on this?Cool

Cheers!

Could it be a sawfly (Xiphydriidae)? Looks like a Syrex sp. but the antenae are too long.

Doesn't look like a Symphyta to me - look at the narrow waist. Looks more like family Pimplinae, genus Pimpla maybe.

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
