Insect ID Please

[Sienna]

Hello All ,

Have not been able to find this in my usual identification books so thought I’d try here.

It was found on a springtime coastal walk and from what I remember, it was about the size of a common wasp.





Any help appreciated,

Sienna

P.S. For future reference what would be the best type of object to put next to an insect to show some scale? Assuming it stays still for long enough

Trichiosoma sp.? Club horned sawfly of some kind.?

It's a sawfly, but Abia sp., A.sericea most likely.
