 October 2007, Movera, Aragon, Spain. 200 meters, continental-mediterranean climate. Habitat: near buildings, fields (Medicago sativa) and gardens, also small pine (Pinus halepensis) patch. In Euryops pectinatus flowers, with a high number of Stomorrhina lunata sucking the same flowers. Size: about 9-10 mm (slightly lesser than E. tenax, bigger than E. arbustorum)

 E. arbustorum has not a black stripe on the face, being entirely whitish and as far I can see your fly has this character....
