Lateral view of a different fly, but the same species as the one above.

I think this one is a
Damaromyia sp. (Pachygastrinae)? The aristate antennae with the third segment globular plus the cross-vein enclosing the discal cell being extremely short. They also have the apical margin of the scutellum distinctly granulated but I can't tell from these pics - do you still have the specimen to check?
Cheers
Tony

Thanks Tony. No, I don't have the fly any more, all gone to BOLD. Thanks for the ID.
