Hello, here is another fly from Fuerteventura waiting for identification.
Is it a tachinid?
Thanks, Marion

Interesting - definitely a tachinid - when was the photo taken? Perhaps it is close to Nemorilla?

The photo was taken on 19th of April this year. The weather was very bad. It was very windy, often cloudy, but extremely dry and also cold. Most other insects are disappeared. So I could only look for a few flies.

Nemorilla maculosa (Meigen, 1824) is listed for Fuerteventura.
