Leaf-footed Bug - Leptoglossus concolor

Leaf-footed Bug - Leptoglossus concolor
N side of Alder Wash, NW of Peck Spring, San Pedro River Valley, NW of Redington, Pima County, Arizona, USA
September 6, 2016
Size: ~1.5 to 2 cm
I think this is Leaf-footed Bug (Leptoglossus oppositus) due to the 3 white spots and the large flags on the hind tibias (the inner side had the same white spot as the other photos here, but not a very clear photo). Less than optimal photo, but I was surprised to see this bug here. Thank you for your help.

Moved from Leptoglossus oppositus.

Having had another look, I think this could also be L. concolor. Moving back to genus pending expert review.
