Maybe 2-3mm at most, this one was seen in my garden yesterday. Only got a couple of similar looking photo's before it disappeared. Got a distinctive back end....anyone know it?

Hi, Roger!

Black pterostigma, reduced wing venation, general "jizz": I would say, Braconidae. But I am no expert...

Hi Juergen...kinda thought it might be one of those myself :|, still they reckon there are only 150,000 or so species...how hard can it be....:| one for the recycle bin or the great unknowns heap.
