I photographed it yesterday at Villanua, Huesca, Spain in Pyrenees at some more than 900 meters hog in the flowers of the road that occurs in a fir forest. The fly sizes about 12-13 mm.

Cylindromyia definitely - long, cylindrical abdomen, red & black colouration and shaded wings. It's the one with the red tip to the abdomen ... bicolor? Smile

Thanks Chris!

At the moment I put as Cylindromyia cf. bicolor.

Unfortunately the wings are too blur. But this is the only medium quality picture that I can made.
