Ant-like orange chalcidoid (?) - Anastatus - female

Ant-like orange chalcidoid (?) - Anastatus - Female
CA-247 16 miles S of Barstow, San Bernardino County, California, USA
June 16, 2019
Size: ca 3 mm
Beat from isolated acacia-like tree in Creosote Bush habitat, this one escaped but I collected a similar or identical wasp a few minutes later at the same location (but got crappy live pics of that one). Reminds me of Meromyzobia?
