Looks like a Rhinophorid indeed.
Maybe in Phyto, but I am not familiar enough with the Hungarian fauna to give it is definitive call.

Thx Theo for your input in this and other threads. Apparently there are only 11 species represented in Hungary, and three of them belong to Phyto.

On second thought, it could be Stevenia as well.
The stalk of the topcel is relatively long for Phyto, but relatively short for Stevenia.
The difference between those genera is obvious if you can see the head in profile, but alas..
So it seems to be either Phyto or Stevenia
