I'm not an expert on Spanish tachinids and I have never seen E.rufiventris ... and the photo is hiding most of the interesting features. But I'd have guessed it was a Linnaemya sp.

The second looks very like a male Phasia aurigera - and I look forward to the day that we can see them in England Wink

The first one is a Peleteria in my mind, (Chris,second antennal segment longer than third !), there are several species. Definitely no Exorista.

The second one is indeed the already famous male of Ph. aurigera.
