This fly was about 1,5-2 mm long. Is it possible to tell Family and genus?

Looks like Madiza glabra (Milichiidae). Since I don't know this family very well, it might be good to wait for confirmation :).

Thanks to Jan Willem and Mark. I think that we have 4 species in Sweden but I have no keys. I hop Irina can help later.

I agree with Paul that this is Madiza glabra. I don't have a key to Madiza species on my website, but all the species have a diagnosis. Go to http://milichiida...ion/madiza and select the species name in the classification on the left.
