Robber Fly - Heteropogon macerinus

Robber Fly - Heteropogon macerinus
Adams County, Pennsylvania, USA
September 8, 2008
Size: 1/2 inch
A very small Robber Fly as the dew drops give some perception of size. I have added an over exposed photo to better define details and colors, especially the legs and abdomen. Help with ID would be greatly appreciated.
