Eulophidae…
This appears to be a male as you suggested earlier. The antennae are clubless and usually have six or less segments which appears to be the case here. Some males have pectinate antennae, but these appear to be both moniliform and hairy. Other defining characteristics of this subfamily including a subtriangular prepectus, wing venation, and dark coloration are apparent.
