Loxocera sp.
Very small, reddish-orange coloration and small antennae, mostly translucent wings with some pale gray banding.
Temperate forest. Rockwood Park, Virginia.
Thank you so much, John. This one had me fooled. It took me a bit of time to find the ones with the longer antennae. :-) This is a new genus for me.
Hi ForestDragonthis one is a fly (Diptera) not a wasp.Sometimes difficult to tell with these small ones.
