I don't really know a thing about wasps, but I have insomnia and am in a froody mood for browsing, so what does anyone think of Braconid?

I'd say you've earned a nice rest, joot.
Looks right to me. Guessing a bit, I'd say this specimen is a male due to long antennae and no ovipositor that I can see.

Oh, and thanks again. You've indirectly IDed one of my recent posts.
