The parasitoid wasps of the genera Leiophron Nees and Euphorus Nees were studied in northern Iran (Guilan, Mazandaran and Alborz provinces). The specimens were collected using Malaise traps from different habitats during 2010-2011. Four species of both genera were collected and identified, of which three species, Euphorus pallidistigma (Curtis), E. similis (Curtis) and Leiophron fascipennis (Ruthe) are newly recorded from Iran. An identification key for these four species together with comments on diagnostic characters and geographical distribution of each species are presented.
