Hi,
This damaged fly with distorted head was found in urban area at San Fernando, Cadiz, south Spain. It was alive but unable to fly. Any idea about the species? Thanks!

Hi Isidro, I think you are right: M. auricollis var. maculicornis (the yellow patches are not connected in the middle of tergite 3+4)
Based on "Fotogids ZWEEFVLIEGEN, André Schulten"

Greetings, Eric
