Parageron is under revision. The situation in eastern and southern Spain I believe is very tricky, and we should wait till the work is ready to put any names.

I cannot see enough to be absolutely certain, although they look correct at first sight. And it is the common early flying species in most of Spain ;-) So, I guess, they can be named Parageron gratus till the revision is finished...
