Atanycolus sp? Female
Very tiny bug mostly black with red/orange rear, long spine for egg laying. "Next to impossible to identify this genus from images alone, however it is one of the more common genera in the subfamily. Identification of images on this guide page are NOT absolute! " - Bug Guide

Most certainly a female ovipositing (laying eggs).
