description A total of 171 species of the family Dolichopodidae (Diptera) belonging to 29 genera are presented from Iran, of which three genera (Arabshamshevia, Emiratomyia and Micromorphus) as well as seventeen species are newly recorded from the country: Arabshamshevia ajbanensis, Asyndetus albifacies, A. separatus, A. transversalis, Campsicnemus pilitarsis, C. simplicissimus, Dolichopus calinotus, D. diadema, D. efflatouni, D. zernyi, Emiratomyia arabica, Hercostomus kravchenkoi, Medetera mixta, M. spinigera, M. veles, Micromorphus mesasiaticus and M. minusculus. Considering that this number of species makes up less than 50% of actual Dolichopodidae fauna in the country, it is supposed that the total number of Iranian species can be raised to 400 or 500 species. The species Syntormon filiger is given here as the first reliable record from Iran, and Medetera micacea is excluded from the list of Iranian Dolichopodidae. The following recombinations are proposed for Chinese species: Campsicnemus flaviantenna (Tang, Wang et Yang, 2015), comb. nov.; Campsicnemus longipilosus (Tang, Wang et Yang, 2015), comb. nov. The photographs of the habitus of newly discovered species as well as some of their diagnostic characters and habitats are presented.
