Syntormon pallipes is a species of fly in the family Dolichopodidae. It is found in the Palearctic, [3] [4] [5] Oriental and Afrotropical realms. In 2019, the mitochondrial genome of S. pallipes was sequenced, as the first representative of the subfamily Sympycninae. [6]

Syntormon pseudospicatus is sometimes treated as a synonym of S. pallipes, but they are argued by Drake (2020) to be distinct species. [7]

A subspecies named Syntormon pallipes longistylus was described by Igor Grichanov from Madagascar in 2001. [1] In 2020, it was determined that this subspecies was in fact a distinct species, Syntormon longistylus . [8]
