What a beauty !
There are several Gonia with spotted wings, but probably only one in Spain. Need to check whether that is G. maculata or another one.
Did you collect it ?

I forgot to upload another interesting view. This one:

Pictures were taken from 2 meters away ??

You have indeed only one species, and it is called maculipennis, not maculata.

That is probably roundabout 600 mm. equivalent. Impressive work.
