First impression was Acrocera, but wing venation and antenna disagree.
Canary Isles ….. :(

Thanks Zeegers. I have another photo, but i could not attach more than one. So, not Acrocera... Thanks a lot

Only two species of Acrocera are reported from the Canary Isles in the Iberian catalogue, both of which seem to be much darker ...

So you might have found something interesting.
