Distribution. A widespread species in the Palaearctic region. In Spain recorded from several provinces in the northern half ( Ricarte & Marcos-García, 2017).

Examined material. Spain: 1♂, 4♀ ( JSA), Lleida , Sort, Col del Canto, 38°22’17” N 1°14’10” E, 1725 m, 18- VIII-2014, J. van Steenis GoogleMaps .

Remarks. These specimens ( Fig. 1B) differ from central European specimens of Chrysotoxum festivum by the entirely black hypostomal bridge ( Fig. 5B); sternum II entirely black, anteriorly with yellow macula in C. festivum ; black facial vitta very broad, broader than in oth- er specimens; wing extensively bare of microtrichia, at most along anterior margin of cell Cu narrowly bare in C. festivum . Further Iberian material and a study of relevant type species is needed to establish the true identity of these specimens. This is the first record for the prov- ince of Lleida.
