Cremastinae

I see there's another that Bob Carlson has suggested as an adventive Campopleginae from Florida. From what I can see in
this photo
, the hind tibial spurs in particular are definitely more broadly separated from the first tarsomere, more like Campopleginae than Cremastinae. The stigmas are also consistently more elongate than in some Cremasatinae (apart from the likes of
Eiphosoma
, which I'm rather certain this is not). None of these show the face, though, which can give more insight. There are a number of campoplegines known for shorter ovipositors as well, though I'd hesitate to use ovipositor length alone to separate the two. But combined with the other points, I'd think this likely adventive is probably Campopleginae.

Ichneumonid Wasps
. I'd be very surprised if this isn't the female to go with
this male
. My impression is (fairly strongly) against
Eiphosoma
which had been suggested, but we have a ton of unexplored diversity in this subfamily. I'd think the only alternative for these would be Campopleginae. I'll tentatively align with Tapani Hopkins' ID on the male for the time being and set up a page to group these. Maybe the full grouping of photos will reveal more. In some cases, both subfamilies are best separated under microscopy.

Ichneumon…
I am not aware of any female members of this subfamily having a short ovipositor. Pls leave at the family level for now. You may also wish to correct your placement of another image
here
as well.
See reference
here.
