Maybe Clytocerus splendidus? - http://www.diptera.info/photogallery.php?photo_id=8707

On the Fauna Europaea no named species Clytocerus splendidus, is there a synonym?

Clytocerus splendidus was described in 2007, the Psychodidae part of Fauna Europaea has not been updated since 2004. In the Balkans you also have Clytocerus longicorniculatus Krek, 1987 (another species which has been omitted from FE!) which is very similar in both the genitalia and the sensory appendages of the male.

This is indeed a Clytocerus, but we don't know enough about the features of wing coloration yet to identify species based on them. There are at least a dozen species in the C. ocellaris complex which can be hard to discertain, and there are only verified photographs of four of them (ocellaris, splendidus, americanus and dalii)... If you are able to collect specimens, I can make slide preparations of the genitalia and try to get names for you.
