Pelecinus polyturator. 🖤 Probably in my top 5 favourite Hymenopterans along with Tremex columba. They are parasitoids of Phyllophaga larvae. Female populations further North are known to be parthenogenetic as males are rare. Males are more common as you go South, however.
What a long boi. American Pelecinid Wasp. #nectar #pelecinidwasp #insect
