Hmm, considering:
- we can't see clearly any of the most important features used when keying parasitica (propodeum; face; surface texture & carinae on the thorax and gaster) and
- parasitica are notorious for being both subtly variable in colour AND looking very similar and
- Gavin Broad & Matt Reidel both won't even commit to tribe, let alone to genus

... all suggests my pessimism was well founded! ;)
