Hi, Some days ago I tapped off this small, nice wasp with silvery eyes. According to the high number of antennal segments I suppose Braconidae. Is there anybody who has a deeper insight in this big family? A proposal of a subfamily or even a tribe would be greatly appreciated! On the lower picture, there is a Chloropid in the background, so the size of the wasp can be estimated. Seen in southwestern Germany, 20 km west of Stuttgart. Many thanks, Sundew Sundew attached the following image:  [207.06Kb] Edited by Sundew on 17-07-2020 12:39 |

Hello, subfamily Cryptinae (Ichneumonidae)? (Looks very much like one, that was identified for me as such.) Best regards, Jürgen -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Juergen Peters Borgholzhausen, Germany WWW: http://insektenfo... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= |

Hi, I've found this pretty one on 20180723 and identified it as Phanerotoma sp. (Braconidae): https://galerie-i...mp;esp=sp. Greetings, Eric |

Thank you so much! I think Phanerotoma spec. fits very well, but which of the 25 European species it is (about 5 in Germany?) we cannot find out, as the key https://www.resea...onidae.pdf is much more detailed than my pictures... Nevertheless it is a great success to have reached a genus ID (the many internet pictures show these silvery eyes), so I am delighted. Best wishes, Sundew Edited by Sundew on 17-07-2020 13:26 |
