Platygastrid - Telenomus podisi
unknown location, Massachusetts, USA
My apologies, but this was an image I made while identifying specimens at UMass. The localities were coded and I do not recall the date of the sample this specimen came from. Sceloninae for subfamily?

Telenomus podisi
The orange coxae tell me it is probably Telenomus podisi

"Scelionid"
Surely in one of the subfamilies formerly in the Scelionidae, but which I'm not sure. Kind of looks like Telenomus, but that's just a guess. This is a very interesting group of parasitoids for sure.

Currently, the family Sсelionidae reduced to the rank of subfamily Scelioninae
