    Family Ichneumonidae, I think. But several genuses with look-a-likes. Posted 3 years ago

      Ichneumons were my first guess too and indeed there are many that look quite similar to one another. Posted 3 years ago

        Interestingly, I found none with a red/black banded abdomen like that, but that could be just me. Posted 3 years ago

          I have another photo with the abdomen clearly focused (but the head not..), which will probably make comparisons easier. I've also been looking at spider wasps, which are often red and black and have big eyes/long antenna like this one, though it seems like they mostly have dark colored wings. Posted 3 years ago
