This I got on the 23rd of June, the female was on 5th July. It was a mystery until I came across it today and saw the similarity! It only stopped briefly so I only got one pic, but the legs are black and the tail has the same colouring.

Although the red appears to be in a slightly striped fashion on the abdomen it isn't a lot different from the female apart from the ovipositor.

There is Gasteruption assectator but legs are a different colour, and if I have the female of Gasteruption jaculator the chances are more than high to have the male too.
