Hello other insectsforum,

About a week ago I found a tiny female wasp on a thistle.
This female discovered this thistle groundly before placing her eggs.
I am not familar with this kind of wasps, but I think this is Cynipidae sp.
On the big yellow abdomen I can see a few black stripes, maiby this can help to identify this dificult group of wasps?
If you can help me any further, you are very welcome!

greeting, robert

Braconidae, I think!

Maybe even genus Bracon (?).
