I looks like Terellia ruficauda but could be something else in Sweden?
About 6-7 mm

Thanks for your help in advance

As I probably told, I found that ruficauda is actually two species mixed, and am resurrecting an old name florescentiae Linnaeus for the species on your picture, but that name is not validized intil my paper is printed.

So let us call it "sp. near ruficauda"

And how long do we have to wait until the paper is published?
So we can all have our pics named :D
