  • Abstract
    The pteromalids fauna (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea: Pteromalidae) was studied in southern areas of Kerman province. The specimens were collected using Malaise traps and sweeping net during March 2016 to August 2017. Seven species of Pteromalidae collected and identified. Among them, four species viz. Halticoptera andriescui Mitroiu, 2005, Ksenoplata quadrata Bouček, 1965 (Miscogastrinae), Systasis parvula Thomson, 1876 (Ormocerinae) and Spalangia nigroaenea Curtis, 1839 (Spalangiinae) were recorded for the first time from Kerman province. The genus Rhicnocoelia is newly recorded from Iran, represented by a single species, Rhicnocoelia impar (Walker, 1836). A brief discussion is given for the Miscogastrinae, Ormocerinae and Spalangiinae fauna of Kerman province.
