Pink flanked Brachonid wasp

Description:

This female wasp may be slightly damaged with her front left leg tucked behind. She was in the same location for 2 days. About 22mm long. Orange head showing ocelli, long fine antennae, a distinct pink section between abdomen and thorax, dark tinted and heavily veined wings, abdomen with black and white bands and an ovipositor about the same length as the abdomen.

Habitat:

Under strong lights at the local school.

Notes:

Yet to study wing venation in detail. There are many similar to this around here and the pink part has been noticed before and also been seen in yellow and white. Also similar ones are found with varying lengths of ovipositor which I guess are different species. I suspect much work is still to be done in describing these creatures.... the search begins.... ok Callibracon capitator is looking good except for the pink flanks vs. white Thanks John La Salle and Stephen Thorpe.
