There are far too many flies this year, but at least it gives me lots of subjects to practise on!

Now that I've found you by Good morning, afternoon and night. Thanks everyone

It must be the right season for these brachypterous parasitoid wasps of the Trichogrammatidae, four in one week. There must surely now be sufficient material from which to gain absolute certainty of identification. Some of the pictures (of this and preceding specimens) show clarity of detail in wing and antennae that must be adequate.
