Photo taken today in Corujo-Vigo (Spain) in a woodland marshland near the seaside. Alnus & oak dominants.
Size about 7 mm.
Thanks in advance.

Maybe Anthomyia illocata?

Once again, I think
Limnophora (Muscidae), either
tigrina or
obsignata. I' can't say without a dorsal view.
Greetings.

Thanks Rafael. From this view, the broad black postsutural band doesn't seem to be connected with scutellum by a mid stripe, which indicate
Limnophora obsignata. In tigrina, it is connected.
