The spider wasps (Hymenoptera: Pompilidae) of Kerman province were faunistically investigated. A total of 17 species of 12 genera belonging to three subfamilies, Ceropalinae, pepsinae and pompilinae were collected during 2017–2018 and identified. Among the collected material, three species of Ceropalinae, Ceropales juncoi Giner, 1945, Ceropales kriechbaumeri Magretti, 1884, Ceropales maroccana de Beaumont, 1947 and a single species of Pompilinae, Agenioideus gentilis (Klug, 1834) are recorded for the first time for the fauna of Iran. Geographical distribution of each species in Kerman province, Iran and outside Iran are presented.
