Family: Ichneumonidae, Gotra sp.
A cool looking wasp found in the rainforest. Was very quick so only got a few shots in. This wasp lays it eggs on the inside of various caterpillars where they grow and eat their way out.

Thanks guys, its one of the Gotra sp.
I agree with Sergio. This may be a good place to start - http://www.brisbaneinsects.com/brisbane_...
It seems an Ichneumonid wasp. I'd start to research from there.
