@MichaelMulvaney & @simonc I know this was from ages ago, but are you guys content with Austroscolia soror? I think the legs & abdomen look very different to me? Kind of looks more like it could be Thynnidae… I don’t want to change anything without seeing what you think too😊

Thanks Di - good call doesn't look like Austroscolia on my relook

@MichaelMulvaney thankyou for re-checking. I might swap it over to a Thynninae😊
