a contribution to ichneumonid wasps of iran (hym.: ichneumonidae): anomaloninae, cremastinae, ctenopelmatinae, mesochorinae, metopiinae and orthopelmatinae) (article in english)

this checklist provides faunistic data for 19 species belonging to 6 ichneumonid wasps: anomaloninae, cremastinae, ctenopelmatinae, mesochorinae, metopiinae, and orthopelmatinae, of which, 3 species from anomaloninae, 4 species and 2 genera (cremastus andtrathala)from cremastinae, 1 species and 1 genus (mesoleius) from ctenopelmatinae, 2 species from metopiinae and 1 species from orthopelmatinae are newly recorded for the iranian fauna. a brief check list of the previously recorded species of these subfamilies from iran is provided. the present work increases the number of the iranian species of anomaloninae, cremastinae, ctenopelmatinae, metopiinae, orthopelmatinae, and mesochorinae to 9, 7, 2, 5, 2, and 1 respectively.
