This fly looks very similar to Xanthochlorus tenellus female of the gallery. Am I right?

Yes, very similar to that one but also to several other Xanthochlorus species

I think there are only two species in Hungary, ornatus and tenellus. And this one to me looks more like tenellus.

I am sure there are more than just these two but they may not have been recorded yet.

Ok, I understand.
