Spider-hunting wasp? This one is proving difficult to identify but I think it is Episyron histrio as it matches the description in the 'Field Guide to Insects of South Africa'. However, their photo is not very clear and I am struggling to find another with a better picture of the head. Fall,Geotagged,Hymenoptera,South Africa,south africa,wasps Click/tap to enlarge
