Hi,

I would like to name this very small fly photographed last year, August in Asturias (Spain).
Puerto de San Lorenzo, 1400m asl.
Length about 3mm.
Any idea of the family/genus?
Thanks for any help!
FRV

This is a Hymenopteran I think...... not a fly

Thank you Kevin, you are probably right. Never seen such a small hymenopteran!

Chalcidoidea (often very small).
