Hello Rob
this one looks like a hymenoptera to me. Maybe one of the Ichneumonidae?!

Best regards, Josef

A parasitic wasp - not a Diptera, so please move the thread to the proper section of the site.

Thread moved Grin

Looks like maybe a cryptine or banchine ichneumonid wasp to me - but maybe cthirion can add more? Smile

As a good rule of thumb, if you can see 2 wings on each side then it goes in 'other insects' Wink In this case the wasp is holding it's front & hind wings together but you can see the shape of the smaller hind wing clearly in the first photo. Smile
