This fly was one hour ago in my garden, urban zone, Zaragoza, NE Spain, taking sun in a cactus pot. It sizes about 6-7 mm. What species can be?

I think Sciomizidae, ?Salticella fasciata?

My idea would be Ephydridae...

Thanks to everybody!

I saw few hours before a Salticella fasciata picture and it's not the same.

For Prosopomyia pallida I had a previous picture, identified here, and is very similar. I will put this name. Many thanks Paul.

You have a spelling error in the changed thread title. ;)

Excuse me, yes. There are differences: the back legs in salticella are thicker(bulkier) and this one does not have them.
