Very early in the season, taken on the 17th March 2012 in the outskirts of Madrid in a path sorrounded by dry mediterranean vegetation. Thanks for any help!!

A detail of the head. Seems to have a very short proboscis.

Thanks for your input, Jorge!! What I know for sure is that it shouldn't be macroglossum, which shoud have a very long proboscis. I remember seeing a discussion about fuminervis here somewhere, with a much shorter proboscis. But It think this one is notoriously even shorter. I don't have any information about pictipennis. It might be this one.
