Abstract

A survey was conducted to determine the species of the genus Lissonota Gravenhorst, 1829 in two Iranian southern provinces of Fars and Hormozgan from February 2011 through August 2013. Six species were identified of which five species are recorded for the first time from Iran. The newly recorded species are as follows: Lissonota bivittata Gravenhorst, 1829, L. clypeator Gravenhorst, 1820, L. impressor Gravenhorst, 1829,
L. pimplator (Zetterstedt, 1838) and L. proxima Fonscolombe, 1854. An updated checklist of Iranian Lissonota species is presented.
