The faunistic data of the results of collecting dolichopodids in the Kaliningrad Region of Russia during two short-term visits (2022, 2023) are presented. In all, 24 Dolichopodidae species are recorded from the Kurshskaya Kosa National Park and 44 species from the Kaliningrad Region. Almost all species are firstly recorded for the region. Most of the collected species are common and widespread across Europe or even across the Palaearctic Region. Gymnopternus silvestris (Pollet, 1991) species is found in Russia and the Baltic Region for the first time.
