Chrysis cf impressa apical rim
Provisionally I am calling this as Chrysis impressa.
These are some test shots with the new Hi-Chrome Camera and GMZ microscope. I think the new kit will prove immensely useful for identifying these extremely challenging wasps. The series of shots here cover some of the key characters one has to look at. Normally one needs to match five or more out of seven characters to approach confidence in one's determination.
Being able to compare images will make this challenging task a little easier (hopefully).
