Dryinidae, perhaps from Acanalonia, cocoon - Dryinus alatus
Mt. Talbot or Riverside Bluff, Woodbury County, Iowa, USA
August 20, 2014
August 14, 2014: Sweep net 2 Acanalonia nymphs, 2 different locations, which I think to be bivittata but they both died before I took a photo. Each had a parasitoid, each parasitoid different.

Acanalonia nymphs died on or before August 18, 2014.
This parasitoid may be associated with this one based on:
1. Photo on this blog: http://gentlecentipede.blogspot.com/2012/12/little-bags-of-horror-three-obscure.html
2. and the partially reared dryinids whose thylacium look more like this whose cocoons were under/in the substrate, at least in rearing jars.
