Buprestid parasite
Copyright © 2007 Brad Barnd

Buprestid parasite
Tippecanoe County, Indiana, USA
March 31, 2007
Size: Tiny
While looking under bark for beetles, I found about 7 of these cocoons in close proximity to several buprestid larvae. I assume then that these were parasites of a relative of those larva.
Collected on 3/25, most of the wasps emerged last night.
