from Dan Heffern:
"I can't be 100% sure, because the angle is bad, but based on location, size, and time of year, I bet it is a Haplidus, either H. testaceus (more likely) or H. laticeps (less likely). Both species probably occur in W. Texas or S. New Mexico (despite literature). The antennae have no apparent spines, which rule out most, if not all, of the elaphidionines. Since it is an early spring species, it is not encountered by the summer crowds."

Moved from ID Request.
