Coastal area in southern Spain
Photograph taken on October, 09, 2011, in the wetlands of the Suárez Pond in Motril, Granada, Spain.
Immediate area of the Mediterranean coast.
Approximate size, no antennae or tails 4-5 mm
Click over the image increases in size
The hunting scene took place in surroundings. The fly trapped, could be of the same species, but I can not say.
Appreciate your cooperation for identification.
Greetings

It appears to have M bent forward almost meeting R, so it should be superfamily Oestroidea. Tachinidae?

Many thanks for your information.
With the guidance that tells me, change the title to try to go further in such identification.
Best regards!

I'm not convinced.
Looks more like some Calliphorid to me.

I can only once again make explicit my ignorance and lack of preparation to identify.
So I always appreciate your expert opinion, and the help you give me to identify the flies that I have photographed
But my lack of preparation, I can not comment on possible differences of opinion among experts.
Edit the title you give alternatives to try to advance in the identification of the fly photographed.
Very grateful for your opinions and help and a warm greeting.
