| Abstract | ||
| The specimens were collected from northern Iran using the sweeping net and Malaise traps during 2010-2019. A total of 25 species were identified, of which four species are recorded for the first time from Iran: Choerades femorata (Meigen, 1804), Dysmachus dentiger Richter, 1962, Heteropogon ornatipes Loew, 1851, and Neomochtherus schineri (Egger, 1855). Also, some species are new provincial records for the northern provinces of Iran. Local and global geographical distributions of all 25 species, diagnostic characters of the newly recorded species, and their photos are provided. | ||
