Hello!

Yesterday we had nearly spring temperatures here in Germany (13 ?C), and there were many active Hymenoptera. Mostly Ichneumonidae and Braconidae, but also this only 1 mm small Chalcidoid (sorry, no better pictures possible) at a Carpinus tree in our garden. Is it possible to tell at least the family? Thanks in advance!

Pteromalidae, I think.

Thanks, Paul! That family I had also in mind.
