Maybe an obscure start to the hymenoptera postings, but part of preparation for a more concerted effort on hymenoptera in 2021. This one was swept from low vegetation in woodland in November.
This is a very small wasp, but by wasp standards not a very, very small wasp!
Very helpful Lucid key to subfamilies of Figitidae:
Best of luck with those - I think I'll just keep to the sidelines and Google the names of what you throw at us, just to check you aren't making them up (coz I honestly wouldn't know if you were, ha!) I'm gearing up for 8-legged shenanigans in 2021. Coupled with diptera it could be a profitable year!
