Abstract

The fauna of Ichneumonidae in the upper half of Kerman province was surveyed. Six Malaise traps were installed in three localities, Anar, Shahr-e-Babak and Mahan regions during 2012. The collecting pot of each trap was emptied by an interval of two-four weeks. A total of nine species belonging to four subfamilies, Campopleginae, Cryptinae, Ichneumoninae and Tryphoninae, were identified. Cymodusa rufiventris Dbar, 1985 (Campopleginae) and Netelia (Paropheltes) maculiventris (Kokujev, 1915) (Tryphoninae) are reported for the first time from Iran. Six species are new records for Kerman province. Diagnostic morphological characters of the newly reported species are provided.
