Scelionid wasp (Stink bug eggs) - Telenomus
St. Albert, Alberta, Canada
July 29, 2016
Size: < 1mm
I found this Scelionid wasp hanging around the eggs. I believe it had hatched from one of the eggs, thus the colour from the usual creamy light chocolate I've usually seen to darker colour.

Thanx
Hi, Ross. This is where I get a little confused. Do I change it from Scelionid to Telenomus in the header? I am just a picture taker. Thanx for the ID, much appreciated. Al.
