2 What you have and in this picture is defined as Scambus sagax here on this site:

What do you think?

Scambus sagax wasn't even close to this horseman, a member of a completely different subfamily, Campopleginae. In pimplins, such as Scambus sagax, the first segment of the metasome is usually wide and short, in contrast to the rider shown in the photo, where the petiole (stalk of the abdomen) is pronounced (see the last photo).
And if about my statement that " Ichneumonids in general and, especially, ichneumonins are not determined by photos! With very few exceptions, and then, as a rule, you need a whole series of photos in different angles with the image of the necessary signs used in the diagnosis " You think that "Everything is possible", I believe that Bad Den is right, and you, Liparus, are a shaman, and only that.
On the Internet, there are a huge number of photos of ichneumonids incorrectly identified by various "experts", who determine them not by keys, but by color, size, a couple of copies of someone once and not the fact that they are correctly identified and other various considerations unknown to anyone else.

PS In general, learn the mat.part of it, if only in order not to confuse the subfamilies of ichneumonids and not to mislead people in vain.
