The arrangement of the veins in the wings are important identifiers to differentiate Ichneumonidae and Braconidae. In this specimen the vein arrangement is unfortunately not clear, so I support KimPullen in saying either/or.

Thank you! Joining and posting to Nature Map has been a fascinating and addictive learning experience. It's really helpful to know what to try and photograph - I usually try to get wing venation and the top of the head, but did not realise the thorax, along with the antennae and ovipositor, were also important diagnostics. Thank you again for your time and sharing of knowledge.
