What's its name? I've seen some before, but rarely. Once every few years or so. Thanks

Edit: the likeliest candidate is an Old House Borer without antennae.

There is a lot of dead wood in the immediate area.

Edit: so it seems to be a Old House Borer, but it lacks the antennae.

It's that another name for Aegosoma scabricorne?

Seem to be the same family.
