Ichneumon wasp (incomplete)

Post by WalterD »

Without doubt this must be an Ichneumon wasp, with its remarkable orange-red legs and its slender body. Unfortunately this one is missing front legs, an antenna and probably its stinger as well; they're not easy to catch!

Shot at 4x magnification with same setup as previous post, because of its size the images were "glued together" like a panorama, to include all extremeties.
Whenever I find another one that's more intact; I will update this post.
Thanks for looking.Image
