My guess would be Ulidiidae, genus Herina.
Wingpattern looks typically Herina.

Best wishes,

John

Could well be Herina tristis, which is known to have a Mediterranean distribution pattern.
 
Teglagyar u. 30.

Thank you John and Xespok.
I've got Herina tristis too.
During the trip I hadn't enought time to key fly. Now I did it completely, from family ID, and I knew that to distinguish Platystomatidae and Ulidiidae one has to check size and shape of a cell.
