I have been interested in this little creature for some time, but am really not getting further. If I have to guess, I think it is around 2/3 mm. It might be a wasp (Parasitica)?

Looks like a Eulophidae. Resembles Sigmophora brevicornis in general appearance, perhaps a congener or near it. Compare this:

Thank you very much! This looks indeed quite like it, I only believe the black abdomen is not present in my picture. However, more detail characteristics are simply lacking in my images. At least it is part of
Eulophidae, where I also found a look-a-like in the
Cirrospilus genus;
C. lyncus (https://waarneming.nl/observation/223124757/).
I think more detailed pictures are needed, but this at least brings me much closer :)

That's awesome! |t Cirrospilus genus is probably correct. I think Cirrospilus brevis might be another promising candidate. See: http://gipcitricos.ivia.es/cirrospilus-brevis-zhu.html
