Petrorossia sp. ;)

Hard to say the species with just this picture. Petrorossia hespera is by far more common than Petrossoria letho. But Petrorossia hespera is believed to be a complex of species. Another Iberian genus of Bombyliidae in desperate need of a revision :(

Perhaps somebody has more up-to-date information...

Thanks Piluca! I will put Petrorossia sp., I know this is a very difficult group. Thanks :)
