Hi David and rest of the forum.
Today I've photographed this tiny bombylid in "El Burgo de Ebro", Zaragoza Ebro valley, NE Spain, a location near my city, dominated by gypsiferous steppe-lands with above all Rosmarinus officinalis, also Salsola vermiculata, Salsola kali, Krascheninikovia ceratoides, Helianthemum nummularium, Gypsophila struthium ssp. hispanica and Artemisia herba-alba. The landscape is not plain and the day have been very windy. There are also some wheat fields and roads in the zone. The fly sizes about 6-7 mm. long. The exemplar passes most of its time flying, stopped in the air. Only one exemplar seen.





Could be identified?
Thanks,
Regards

Thanks David. P hespera is the only cited for Aragon so I'll let it as this.

No, there are lots of species and no one know which is which, the genus must be revised before names can be applied without a ?
