Interesting : it seems to be
Villeneuvia aestuum, though I cannot be sure as it is a newly emerged fly.

I must have a close-up to the face and frons to (maybe) confirm :
Villeneuvia have no orbital setae on frons, the face is concave and the vibrissal edges are approximated to the middle of the face.

I not have a good close-up. I have a lot of bad photos. I am sorry.
Thanks Stephane.

Hi Luis, I was a bit long to answer because I wanted to check with my own specimens, and now I can tell you that I'm confident your fly is
Villeneuvia aestuum.
This is interesting because it seems not to be recorded from Spain.

Hello:
I have seen in Fauna Europaea the distribution of Villeneuvia aestuum http://www.faunaeur.org/distribution_table.php
but, Is this information updated?. I have seen in this web (Diptera.info) that also is present in Portugal.
Thank you.
