Thank you for your explanation, now I understand the problem. I think
however that this kind of behaviour of ListContourPlot and
RegionFunction is quite unstable, in fact it appears for very thin
gaps of points: my example had a very raw mesh, but even if I use a
very fine mesh the same thing happens, if the interval appears to be a
little outside the data.

Kind regards,
Flavio Cimolin
