Cleruchus pluteus
A female Cleruchus pluteus parasitoid wasp of the Mymaridae family found in Brede High Woods. Lots of additional pictures below showing various identification details. Note specifically the wing setae and antennal segment proportions. This was a darker form of C.pluteus compared to the two previous specimens, but the balance of probability points to this species.
