Or may be it is Beris morrisii?

One of the smaller Empidoid genera, possibly Ocydromia.

Xylophagus species are much larger, body length >1 cm. Beris isn't nearly as long-legged is more robust and 'compact'

Thank you Jere.
In the field I claim " new Empididae!", but at home I decided that that it is something else.
"Empidoid" = Empididae?

Kahis is right, Ocydromia glabricula, an ovoviviparous dance fly/
