Common Sawfly? - Tenthredo

Common Sawfly? - Tenthredo
In Westwood - elevation 5100ft, Lassen County, California, USA
Could this be a genus Tenthredo sawfly? And possibly "arcuata group" (1)? Any ID help appreciated - Thanks!

This specimen was collected on June 24, 2008; and was quite covered with pollen.

Thank you Dave!
Moved from Common Sawflies.

Tenthredinidae, Tenthredininae
Correct- Tenthredo sp. of the arcuata group, one character being the short and slightly clubbed antennae. About 15 species in the group, but they can't be identified from photos.
