Ceraphronoidea: Megaspilidae: Lagydoninae - Lagynodes

July 9, 2009
Size: Approx 1.25 mm long
I think this minute wasp belongs to the (Hymenoptera: Ceraphronoidea: Megaspilidae: Lagydoninae). It was collected in Pitfall traps from a mixed deciduous forest with lots of blueberry and standing water/ephemeral ponds.

I'm working on identifying insects (and spiders right this instant) from pitfall traps in similar habitats here in north-central Massachusetts. I found lots of (winged) Diapriidae in them. I'd be curious to know what kind of project you are working on up there. BugEric24ATyahooDOTcom.
