Machimus (I think) with a Hermetia illucens.
02/08/2016. Galicia (Spain).
Could be the unnamed Machimus? Thanks
Best regards,

This seems to be a male belonging to the Machimus setibarbus group (i.e. caliginosus, cyanopus, intermedius, setibarbus) The present descriptions turned out to be insufficient.....much more study and a revision is required.

Thank you Reinoud.
It seemed to me very similar to this Machimus "nameless":
