green and bronze parasitic wasp - Erimerus - Female
Sierra Foothills REC, Browns Valley, California, USA
May 10, 2009
Size: 2.6 mm
Collected via vacuum sampling in grassland, midday. Grasses and most forbs were at peak biomass with fruits or flowers present. I did my best with Goulet & Huber's Hymenoptera of the World -- does the ID seem correct?
