Size?
How long is this cocoon? I would have presumed it to be a campoplegine, but there are no records of campoplegines from this host. There is a record for Enicopilus glabratus, but that would be a larger critter, and I am not familiar with the texture and coloration of the cocoons they may make.

That seems far too small to be Enicospilus. Therefore, I am expecting it to be Hyposoter.

cocoon
I'll measure the cocoon later this afternoon when I go out. I've kept the cocoon so presumably in a few weeks should have a photo of the wasp that emerges.
