Hi,
Some days ago I tapped off this small, nice wasp with silvery eyes. According to the high number of antennal segments I suppose Braconidae. Is there anybody who has a deeper insight in this big family? A proposal of a subfamily or even a tribe would be greatly appreciated!
On the lower picture, there is a Chloropid in the background, so the size of the wasp can be estimated.
Seen in southwestern Germany, 20 km west of Stuttgart.
Many thanks, Sundew

Hello,

subfamily Cryptinae (Ichneumonidae)? (Looks very much like one, that was identified for me as such.)
Best regards,
Jürgen

Hi, I've found this pretty one on 20180723 and identified it as Phanerotoma sp. (Braconidae):

Thank you so much! I think Phanerotoma spec. fits very well, but which of the 25 European species it is (about 5 in Germany?) we cannot find out, as the key https://www.resea...onidae.pdf is much more detailed than my pictures... Nevertheless it is a great success to have reached a genus ID (the many internet pictures show these silvery eyes), so I am delighted.
Best wishes, Sundew
