It is not a bee because of the suture lines on the top of the thorax. Perhaps it is a sawfly, though it is not one I have seen before.

Thanks Michael, I suggested Sawfly, will see what others have to say.

a sawfly and teh club antennae indicate that it is in the Pergidae family but sorry I can't go beyond that
