Ture Bug - Corydalus cornutus

Ture Bug - Corydalus cornutus
Round Rock, Williamson County, Texas, USA
September 10, 2016
Size: 60mm x 15mm
This bug was observed under the eaves on my garage this morning and was present for several hours/ I was able to make an actual measurement of the length. I have gone through many pics on Bug Guide but was not able to find a match but thought it was one of the true bugs.

Dobsonfly
Different order of insects. There are two species in your area but I don't know how to tell them apart.
