The specimens of the mealybug Peliococcus kimmericus (Kiritshenko) were collected on Lactuca serriola L. from different parts of the Fars province, Iran. Four parasitoid wasps, Anagyrus orbitalis (Ruschka), Leptomastix histrio Mayr, Cheiloneurus kollari (Mayr) and C. paralia (Walker) (Hym.: Encyrtidae), were reared from this mealybug and the identifications confirmed by Dr Zhihong Xu. The relationship between these parasitoids, which are new records for Iran, and their host are newly reported.
