Moved from Ichneumonid Wasps.

I cannot even remotely agree. Antennae this long are significantly more likely to indicate a braconid, not an ichneumonid. This would be much more likely to be a male Macrocentrinae. The hind trochanters are also suspiciously elongate for an ichneumonid. But without a view of wing venation visible, we lose a major distinguishing trait.

Moved from Ichneumonid Wasps.

Given the length of the antennae, more likely Braconidae. Wing venation isn't the clearest at this angle for verification, though.

I agree this ...
... is an ichneumonid.
