Thanls Chir, but I have a Cylindromyia bicolor (not sure ID) from a different site (Pyrenees, 900 meters), with more black on abdomen and less white on sides of thorax. See http://www.diptera.info/forum/viewthread.php?forum_id=5&thread_id=7693
In the other hand C. bicolor is not cited for Monegros zone, where are cited Cylindromyia auriceps, Cylindromyia crassa, Cylindromyia intermedia and Cylindromyia pilipes.
Jorge, all these photographs I taked more or less in the middle between Alfajar?n and Perdiguera.

I agree, it is not bicolor, unless the colours are dramatically altered.
The pic does not allow a solid ID.
First impression is C. intermedia.

Thanks a lot Theo and Chrus. Colour not modificated and in various exemplars is here - orange, not red-.
I will let it as Cylindromyia cf. intermedia.
Thanks again,
Isidro
