An annotated checklist of Dolichopodidae (Diptera) species from Primorsky Territory, Russia, with new records

Abstract

The results of long-term studies of the dolichopodid fauna of Primorsky Territory (Primorye) by Soviet and Russian authors are presented in the form of an annotated list of species for the first time. For this paper, originally published localities were checked, if they were referenced, and the exact locations of some collection points were established according to the museum collections. The latter material is included into the checklist. In addition, a new material of Dolichopodidae is included, collected by Dr. O. Kosterin in 2020. Hydrophorus cinipunctus and Hydrophorus viridis are reported from Primorye for the first time. Findings of Dolichopus campestris, Hydrophorus freyi, Medetera stackelbergiana and Sciapus nervosus are the first reliable records from Primorye. In total, 204 species from 30 genera of long-legged flies are listed.
