Robber Fly - Cyrtopogon

Robber Fly - Cyrtopogon
Apex Park, Golden, Jefferson County, Colorado, USA
July 8, 2005
Size: about 10mm

Cyrtopogon
Almost certainly one of the western Cyrtopogon species. Species on these would require capture. You can compare them to the other Cyrtopogons here at bugguide but this is likely a species note found in the east.

 
Western Cyrtopogon
Thanks for the ID Herschel. Tonight I'll post a few more western robbers.
