A female of subfamily Pristocerinae
This species must be a member of the subfamily Pristocerinae. However, if we get a ID, a picture of dorsal surface is needed. There are 3 pictures here, but we don't know its size and how it looks like in dorsal view.

In brief, this is a species of subfamily Pristocerinae.

I still have the specimen in
I still have the specimen in alcohol; Do you need a dorsal shot of the whole body, or would close-up of a particular body segment be more helpful? I'll try to get a size measurement for you.

Thanks, Peter
Thanks for your prompt reply, Peter.
Yes, I need a dorsal shot of this specimen and size. It can help for finding an ID. Many thanks for your attention.

The body is about 3mm in leng
The body is about 3mm in length. I uploaded a dorsal shot of the head and thorax. I have some other shots too, but don't want to upload too many. Just let me know if you need to see anything else.

Bethylidae
Abdomen has become quite distended, making it look much more ant-like than usual.
