Abstract
Aphid parasitoids (Braconidae: Aphidiinae) in several localities of Kerman province, Southeastern Iran were studied between 2007 and 2008 and 20 species belonging to eight genera were identified. Parasitoids were reared from 25 field-collected aphid species occurring on 31 host plant species. In the present study, 83 parasitoid-aphid-plant associations, their aphid hosts, and the respective host plants were determined. Nineteen species (except Lysiphlebus fabarum (Marshall, 1896)) were new records for Kerman province and two species (Praon flavinode (Haliday, 1833) and Praon unitum Mescheloff and Rosen, 1988) were new records for Iran. An illustrated identification key to species is presented.
