Unkn beetle - Iphthiminus serratus

Can someone ID this beetle please (a Tenebrionid of some sort maybe?) - thanks

Moved from Iphthiminus.

based upon the elytral punctation and range
this should be I. serratus. the pronotum is out of focus so punctation is hard to determine. overall it looks most like serratus. also I. lewisii is not known to occur in the Sierras.
