Thanks Paul and Belov.
I wasn't even sure it was a wasp when I collected it, although these days I would recognize it for one :-)

not Symphyta
but Apocrita: note contriction of body, reduced wing venation. May be Braconidae or Ichneumonidae,

Pamphiliidae
or web-spinning sawfly family is what this looks like to me based on photos in Marshall's book, "Insects: Their Natural History and Diversity."

Hymenopteron
Some wasp?
