Abstract
The Ichneumonidae fauna of Kerman province, Iran, was surveyed in April 2013 to June 2014. In total, 35 species belonging to 22 genera and eight subfamilies were collected and identified, of which Cryptus armator Fabricius, 1804; Enizemum schwarzi Diller, 1987 and Barichneumon gaullei Berthoumieu, 1903 are new records for thefauna of Iran. An updated list of Ichneumonid species for Kerman province is presented. These data can be useful for biological control programs.
