Moved
Opiinae per Dr. Paul Marsh.

Moved from Braconid Wasps.

Most likely Alysiinae
With long, narrow stigma and wide, sweeping r vein, probably Alysiinae. A good ventral shot of the head, showing the mandibles, would clinch it.

 
I wasn't able to get a ventral shot
but I thought I was seeing regular mandibles in the second shot.
