Wasp on G. fir Snag - Trypoxylon
Husum , Klickitat County, Washington, USA

This tiny wasp was found on a Grand fir snag riddled with insect holes and cavities, on the edge of an Aspen grove and wetland meadow - part of a prairie/wetland remnant. Many Thanks!

Square-headed Wasp
This is most likely a female in the genus Trypoxylon, but I'm not sure of the species.
