Chalcid Wasp
This is not an Ensign Wasp. The shape of the thorax, low abdominal insertion point on the propodeum, lack of a long petiole and large hind femora, are all indicators that this is a member of the Chalcididae family.
Please compare Hockeria eriensis: Your wasp may be a related species or in another genus. I'm not sure.
