@SimoneC if one visits me again this year in Summer, I'll make sure to get a better size estimate. :-) I'm happy enough if you think that this just needs to be at a genus level.

@SimoneC additionally, on another photo I had on the camera it had its wings a bit out from its body. The wings are darkish in colour, but are semi-see-through.

I'll have to check them all now! These had been IDd by iNat as D. pardina; and in this area we have both of them, with D. semilunulata being a bit later in the season, usually after the D. sulphurea are dying off. We get a mixture of D. sulphurea and D. pardina growing in close association, many more of the former, and close enough together physically for the difference to be noticable.

@SimoneC I am notoriously bad at judging sizes of what I submit. The wider version of one of the shots shows part of one of my border rocks and some other bits of tan bark. I think I've been able to identify one of the bits of tan bark in the photo to get a rough idea of the scale (yes, I've wandered outside in the dark and cold and a tape measure). I'm going to say looking at that that it was around 10-12 mm roughly. Seeing as I'm still getting things off my camera and the original 40 photos of the wasp are on that, I explored and none of them will allow me to get much idea of a size scale. This was with a 100 mm macro lens on the canon R5, so lots of pixels.
