Another tiny wasp (?) that emerged from Rhopalomyia californica gall - Anaphes
Carpinteria Salt Marsh, Carpinteria, Santa Barbara County, California, USA
January 7, 2012
Size: 1 mm

...for the other individual of what I'm assuming is the same species that was also in the bag. Any ideas on what it is? Mymaridae, maybe?
