Anagrus atomus

Description:

a 0.5mm long male Anagrus atomus parasitoid wasp of the Mymaridae family found in the same colutea/rose bush in the garden as the female of this species a couple of days ago. Additional pictures below can be viewed larger with a click but show little extra detail because half a millimetre is pushing the capability of my set up! Lowest two pictures show the even tarsal segment length, and glabrous area of forewing toward the lower apex - both points are specific (note that the glabrous area is much more clearly defined in this male than the female a couple of days ago).
