Description
Summary:In this study, the taxonomy and species diversity of parasitois wasps of Pimpliformes and Ichneumoniformes (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae) were investigated in the some areas of Yazd province (Zarkoeih, Manshd, Bahabad, Dehert and Totiabad) in 2015. The specimens were collected using Malaise traps. Two Malaise traps were placed in each locality in a distance of about 50-100 meters from April to September. Specimens were extracted from the Malaise traps once in every two weeks. In the study of species diversity, species Mesoleptus sp. Of Cryptinae (Ichneumoniformes) family with 24 individuals (%13/28) had the highest frequency, and the Manshad region had the greatest diversity. A total, Pimpliformes group 13 species belonged to 9 genera and three subfamilies, and Ichneumoniformes group 16 species belonged to 12 genera and two subfamilies were collected and identified. Of these, all species, except the two species of Diplazon laetatorius (Fabricius, 1781) and Cryptus nr.inculcator (Linnaeus, 1758), in the Yazd province are new.
