Have a closer look on the wing veins: Bombylidae. I would guess
Phthiria sp.

hello, sorry, 13 species (in MCT´s 2002 catalog), 11 in peninsula and 3 in Canary Islands and no good recent key, just old books: Lindner's, Austen (Palestine) and Faune de France. I write nothing for those recorded in peninsula:
Phthiria antiqua (only in Canary Islands, no info (me))
Phthiria barbatula (no info)
Phthiria canescens (Faune de France, Lindner)
Phthiria conspicua (Lindner)
Phthiria freyi (only in Canary islands, no info)
Phthiria gaedei = maculata (gaedii) (in the 3 books)
Phthiria lacteipennis (Lindner)
Phthiria pulicaria = major (Lindner, F. France)
Phthiria scutellaris (F. France)
Phthiria simonyi (peninsula + Canary islands, Lindner)
Phthiria subnitens (Lindner)
Phthiria umbripennis (3 books)
Phthiria vagans = pallescens (Lindner, Austen)
Regards
