@bstarzomski & @sedgequeen If you have a moment, do you agree with this ID?

Exact location not provided for obvious reasons. This branchling is the first record for breeding of this species in our area. Recorded one year after the BC Breeding Bird Atlas. Numerous adult records for our area prior to this find.

First sighting of this order on Galiano! Seen here parasitizing a male Ancistrocerus albophaleratus.
Pseudoxenos is the only genus of Strepsiptera recorded from Eumenine wasps and parasitizes them exclusively. I couldn't find any mention of this genus from BC and this may be the first time it has be noticed in the province.
This is/was a female and planidium larvae (the small grey things) can be seen emerging.

From ~23,000 year old sedimentary deposits of the "Quadra Sands". @keevilm @georgeg I keyed here based on pleurocarp, smooth cells, acuminate leaf with strong single costa toward apex, elongate laminal cells. I don't have any experience with living material -- does this seem reasonable? Material is fairly well preserved but can't gen much more from it. The only other peice of data that might be relevant is that the layer it is found in is rich with shore pine and is surrounded by proglacial sand deposits. From Clague 1975: "Aggradation of the unit occurred during the climatic deterioration at the beginning of the Fraser
Glaciation. Thick, well sorted sand was deposited in part as distal outwash aprons at successive positions in front of, and perhaps along the margins of, glaciers advancing from the Coast
Mountains into the Georgia-Puget Lowland during late Wisconsin time. "
