Can anyone help me in identifying these two (Diptera?) species. Both images were taken in Bayamo, Granma province, Cuba, Dec 2013. Thanks, David DJHiker attached the following image:  [197.06Kb] |

Hi John, hi cthirion, Thanks for your help. I tried to determine the Enicospilus species based on the alar sclerites in the forewing. The specimen in my second photo has both proximal and central sclerite with a vaguely visible distal sclerite attached to the proximal sclerite. This resembles the illustration from the web page of the American Entomological institute labeled “undescribed species”. As far as I can see in my first photo, only the proximal sclerite seems to be present in this one. That would indicate that they might be different species.
