@LyndalT yes, I still think it is Calopompilus sp. I’m new to NatureMapr but if you know someone who regularly does Wasp ID’s you can Tag them to double check for you😊

Hi I typed in the wrong longitude - should be 153, not 143 - can you pls check ID given this wasp was in the middle of the rainforest, not in SW Qld. Thanks.

This wasp also lifted a little circular ‘door’ on the ground and disappeared under it. Then reappeared later. I was intrigued. Given that it’s been identified as a spider wasp, I wonder if it entered and searched a trapdoor spider’s nest.
