I sent this one off along with some Coleoptera for ID, to be told it was Hymenoptera. It is maybe 2mm long (max) Anyone here ID it? |

Yep, it's a small wasp of the family Bethylidae, but genus/ species will be difficult from a picture! Greetings Greetings, Gerard Pennards |

Hi Jorge I think it looks like a cross between some form of Coleoptera (the head) and an Ichneumon Wasp (the rest of it). Thankfully....not stung, if it's as bad as you say. Regards Roger |
