Thank you Konstantin for identifying this species for us General Species Information: Found in the Adelaide Hills and possibly elsewhere We thought this was a Pteromalid Wasp, but Konstantin said "A short vein is visible on the wing, which is usually long in pteromalids, which also have a short ovipositor. These are the main signs between them, but there are other families. But in general - it is typical Torymid, alike Torymus (still with "?")." | |||||
