Mayfly, shadfly or 'one-day fly' . 'Haft' in Dutch.

Ephemeroptera; from the Greek ephemeros = 'short-lived' (literally 'lasting a day' 'daily' or 'day-long'), referring to the brief lifespan of adults. The aquatic insects usually lasts one year in fresh water in nymph-stadium. The adults are short-lived, from a few minutes to a few days, depending on the species.

Wasp width including wings is only 1.6mm.

Wasp head is slightly below the glue. The ultra small dimensions were extremely difficult to fix the wasp. Also, the legs are slightly under the glue. This is my smallest ever recorded wasp and I have no idea what kind of wasp.
