Hi, everybody!

I found this Tabanid (I'm assuming it's a Tabanus, buy I might be wrong) in a sort of garden close to sea cliffs, on July the 28th in Cabo PeƱas (Asturias, N Spain). Several specimens were present.

I wonder if the species can be said with the attached pictures...

Thanks in advance!!

Regards
