Thanks piros. I have seen and I think it could be a female of D. diadema (I have photos in the same place of the male):

Álvaro, I am afraid that there is no chance of species ID from these pictures. The black Dasypogon only can be ID to species level by studying the male genitalia. Dasypogon diadema is the common black Dasypogon in Central Europe but it seems to be local in Spain and no records exist from Southern Spain. A lot yet to study about this group of species in Spain.
