Ichneumonidae spec.
Robert Heemskerk
hi ohter insectforum,

I found a parasitaric larvae (wasp) on Araniella spec.

Next to this spider, I found some kind of Ichneumonidae sp.

Is there a connection between larvae and wasp? or just accidental?

What kind of wasp are these? (the imago)
This wasp got a clear pterostigma and the foreside of the wing got many hairs.

Your pics recall the parasitized spider of my thread http://www.dipter...d_id=15117. Chris suggested tribe Polysphinctini of Ephialtinae (= Pimplinae) of Ichneumonidae. I really wonder whether your imago might belong to this tribe.
Regards, Sundew

No, not Ichneumonidae. These are Tenthredinidae and most likely Nematinae. Further ID is not possible from photos, I'm afraid.

Thank you Sundew for your reaction on ecto-picture and Lars thank you for your explination of the Tenthredinidae sp. (pic2)

The Tenthredinidae sp. (pic2) was about 5-6mm

Today I collected another ecto-spider, I'll try to let it grow

I find a resemblance with Braconidae to him, especially the antennas and the wing nervation with this large stigma! In more the head is very triangular and not transverse

Thank you cthirion, for your comment.
I'll call it Braconidae

Hereby, one lateral close-up from the head

The wings of Nematinae on various photographs have a less lengthened, more flexible form and the more transverse head in the absence of being able to see other characters here!

I totally agree with Cthirion, this wasp should belong to the family Braconidae. If I had to guess I would say subfamily Braconinae. But you probably won't ask me to guessWink.

Hello,
Sorry to be boring.
But does somebody have a reference for such exo-paratitic worms on a spider (if I may call them this name) ?

Christine Rollard published on the parasitism of the spiders!

Camille,

Thanks for the pointer.
I only found an article by her on Geris parasiting spider eggs.
