Description

Shocker photos of a rare wasp. Taeniogonalos tenebrosa. I've included them for the record. This is an endemic Tasmanian wasp that I've now seen three times. I saw this in the early evening and there was a stiff breeze. The low light and movement, combined with an awkward place on the bush had hopeless consequences for the 3 photos the wasp tolerated.

This isn't in the iNaturalist database.

Always great to find this Tas endemic species, and this trip I photographed two, and saw a third. Taeniogonalos tenebrosa (but iNaturalist doesn't seem to have it listed.)

Maybe. Thought it was Hylaeinae at first. However head sharp and antenna length differ.
