Tachynomyia sp.
2 thick black antannae , long narrow body, small abdomen area into a point at the base.
close to a water supply9river) , landing on reeds near the water and also weed type plants.
I have searched ...best i was finding - Suborder Apocrita -Terebrant (Parasitica) > Ichneumonidae (Ichneumon Wasps) > Genus Hyposoter But not entirely sure ..but i think its a wasp?
