I want identify this one.

It looks Scaeva for me.

It was last Sunday in Vallibierna Valley, in forest of Pinus uncinata in high Pyrenees (Aragon, Spain) at 1700-1800 meters high . The fly was sucking the pine resine and sizes about 8-9 mm long.

I'd say Scaeva pyrastri male (but I'm not an expert)
