Enicospilus…
Several spots in the DM cell of the forewing and an adventitious vein place this in this genus.

See reference here.

Thanks Ross! I am yet a rook
Thanks Ross! I am yet a rookie among wasps, and any feedback is much appreciated.

P.S. I have another image of what I thought was the same as I labeled "Ophion", and so after reading your post, I noticed on this individual, there are no spots in the DM cell of the forewing....could I e-mail you the image for your opinion? Thanks!
