They are not very common, so you probably won't find it in a general insect book. They are so small most insect books will not list them. I will see if I can find the website where I found it...thought I bookmarked it but can't find it when I want it :-)

hey thanks

Hey thanks for your help, I tried to find it in our Insect Book and couldn't seem to find it for the life of me.

These little insects look like some type of wasp. They maybe a parasitic wasp, but not sure yet which one. If so they lay eggs in/on another insect. The eggs hatch and larva feed on that host until ready to emerge.
I will continue to search more about these, but wanted to let you know what I think so far.
Very interesting find!
