Asilid with four white bands on finger - Cyrtopogon

Asilid with four white bands on finger - Cyrtopogon
6 miles NW Lyons, Boulder County, Colorado, USA
June 25, 2005
Size: BL ~ 14 mm
This robber fly with four white integumental bands also looks like the Heteropogon from Estes Park, CO, #432060. This fly was taken in the CO foothills at ~6400' elevation. This is maybe 14 miles south of Estes Park. The appendage seems male. The basal half of the inner tibia seem to be red. Details of leg segments are similar. However, the dorsal image which I will post next looks very much like a Cyrtopogon. Any help with this ID is much appreciated.

Cyrtopogon
This is a Cyrtopogon, the "Heteropogon" on the other page (#432060) looks like it was misidentified.
