More blood voracious suckers... Found in a mountainous region, center of Portugal.
Haematopota pluvialis?
Thanks,

Very difficult to judge, given the flashy pictures.
But it looks like another species, possibly in the ocelligera subgroup.
Did you collect it ?

Thank you, Theo! No, I don't collect the critters, only shoot them. if not a Haematopota sp., what do you suggest? I'm not aware of the ocelligera group.

ocelligera, pseudolusitanica and eugeniae.
But I'm not claiming anything.
