During the recent 2023–2024 survey conducted in the Sverdlovsk Oblast, 17 Dolichopodidae species were collected, including 5 species new for this region. An annotated list of 64 species of the family in its fauna is compiled. Dolichopus rufitinctus Becker, 1917 is placed in synonymy with D. linearis Meigen, 1824 (syn. nov.). Most of the known species are common and widespread across the Palaearctic Region. Campsicnemus varipes Loew, 1859, Dolichopus austriacus Parent, 1927, and Syntormon pallipes (Fabricius, 1794) are mainly southern Palaearctic species. Dolichopus zetterstedti Stenhammar, 1851 is a northern element in the Sverdlovsk Oblast fauna. Hydrophorus irinae Negrobov, 1977 is a conditional endemic of the Middle Ural. The Sverdlovsk Oblast is the easternmost region of Syntormon metathesis (Loew, 1850), S. monilis (Haliday, 1851), and Thrypticus laetus Verrall, 1912. Dolichopus uralensis Stackelberg, 1933 is known only from Krasnoyarsk Kray and Urals including Yamalia. The rare Sympycnus yakutensis Negrobov, Grichanov, Selivanova, 2017 inhabits Central Yakutia and Sverdlovsk Oblast. The presence of European Lamprochromus bifasciatus (Macquart, 1827) is yet to be confirmed.
