Possibly Stephaniodea or Evanioidea

Apocrita (suborder)

Unfortunately the hairiness doesn’t narrow it down enough, its fairly common in the tiny wasps

No it’s definitely something other than Stilbum sp. Stilbum have a protuberance in the middle of the thorax and large serrations on the end part of the abdomen. You can see some images here https://museum.wa.gov.au/research/collections/terrestrial-zoology/entomology-insect-collection/entomology-factsheets/cuckoo-wasps

Chrysididae (family)

Hi @SimoneC
Thankyou, this was at least 2cm long, could it be the same sp but large? Never seen one so big

Certainly seems big but otherwise doesn’t really look like Stilbum
