Id. is tentative. Submitted to Bugguide.net: https://bugguide.net/node/view/2347130.
I have had a number of observations of similar ichneumonids that I have identified to genus Compsocryptus but which have not received review by any identifier. I am not sure how many different similar looking species reside in this area.
