Robinson's review of the Dolichopodidae of Dominica (which is a different island in the same sea) may be helpful: https://repositor...10088/5375.

I'm so sorry: being too tired yesterday evening I made a photo of female instead of male. Igor and John, thank you.

Dear Nikita,

I believe also it's a Sympycnus, though the genus is (most probably) paraphyletic at this moment.
Cheers,
Marc

Thank you, Marc. I hope that this species is interesting, because it was collected at 2100 m and should be endemic for Hispaniola. Right now I'm in train Moscow-Petersburg, so next week Grichanov will get Dominican Dolichopodid material.
