 Eumerus is not an easy genus, certainly not in the mediterranean. Maybe Andre or others can make a guess but i wisely keep my hands of a specific determination Smile.
In Belgium I would call it Eumerus tricolor but as i say, the genus counts a lot more species in the mediterranean i don't know.

 This looks like the female of Eumerus sabulonum. A fairly common species in Spain, which is good, because it is a very nice one Smile
For 100% ID of any Eumerus species, collecting would be best.

Some flies preserved in ethanol and then pinned often get the eyes sunken, how can this be avoided? Best answer: I usually keep alcohol-collected material in alcohol

Yes, dipterologists from far abroad, please buy your copy at veldshop. Stamps will be expensive, but he, the book is unreasonably cheap Smile
