Hi,

I have just returned from The Greek island of Leros, where I had the
opportunity to vist a local beekeeper.
They seem to have all the pests and problems we do here except for hive
beetles. Instead they have problems with Wasps. A large red one can
devistate a hive, I'm told.
They also have a very fast small green wasp that steals eggs and lavae,
but I couldn't get a picture of that one.
Below I posted a picture of it. (If the link doesn't work it can be found
in Yahoos Norlandbeekeepers group, photos - Don Csmpbell - Greece)

I've look for an ID but no luck, anyone have any idea?
