Hello
The picture from Poland. I suppose there is a sawfly from Tenthredinidae family, but I'm not sure. Moreover, maybe somebody know more detailed ID?

Hello, it's an Ichneumonidae, female Pimplinae, I think - do have more photos of this one?

Apparently not Tenthredinidae - too many antennal joints. Having seen only this one photo, I cannot exclude Apocrita: Aculeata.

With some ???: Delomerista mandibularis (Ichneumonidae - Pimlinae - Delomeristini) - I will check...

It seems exactly like here: https://www.commanster.eu/Commanster/Insects/Bees/SpBees/Delomerista.mandibularis.html But it is only one picture in all google
However it's definitely not Tenthredinidae. Thank you for help!

caution! That website is not reliable. Many misidentications there.

The problem with the identification is described on the commanster website itself, too:
https://www.comma...aveat.html
And it is never a good idea to rely on only one source - whatever you are searching for.
Pimplinae and even Delomerista mandibularis could be close but even if if you go back to Schmiedeknecht's Pimpla mandibularis you will not find a final answer in this case.
But anyhow we should continue to keep the eyes open.
