I love your pictures of all these tropical wonders. This one is a Pelecinid wasp. They're wide ranging. Here's something about them.http://bugguide.net/node/view/6945

Yeah, that's its abdomen! A pretty eye-catching wasp because if it.

Interesting find! I wonder what that long 'pipe' is used for? Or does it belong to the wasp at all? V
