I tought it was a
Paragus but it was bigger.

La Cleta, Pyrenees mountains, north-east Spain. Alpine pastures. Went to swat in a t-shirt.
Confirmation or not? Thanks!

Hi,
Hard to see but I think you are right on the genus Pipizella. ID to species is only possible based on male genitalia.
Best,

Thanks! Fortunately specimen was collected, but with wide separated eyes I guess it's a female...
