hello insectforum,

I catched this kind of wasp(?) in my house, first I thougt it was a little fly.., but when I looked more specific it doesn't look like a fly.

The length is about 1,5 - 2 mm.
Is it kind of wasp?.
I made some picture's so I could see more of it.

I can see long antenne's, the head is small and looks like an Ichneumon's head.
hair on black/green shiny thorax. Upper Abdomen got also an greenish glimp and on the end of the abdomen it is redish!
The end of the tail there is a pair of pincers?

I can use some help.., which direction do I have to look?

greetings, Robert Heemskerk

I have to disappoint you, Robert, it is a dark-winged fungus gnat (Sciaridae), a midge. :p

I am happy with a gnat! :)
That is a large family, the 'dark-winged fungus gnats', I think..?
So, I will give the name Sciaridae sp. to it.

I have to learn more about flies I think.
But I like it, I look forward to other 'flies'

regards Robert Heemskerk
