A taxonomic checklist of 43 species of Eurytomidae belonging to seven genera, and 41 species ofTorymidae belonging to 15 genera, are currently recognized as occurring in Iran. Based mostly on various faunisticsurvey reports; no eurytomid or torymid species with collection records from Iran have previously been listed.Therefore; we did not intend to confirm identifications of previous studies, except in very obvious cases. A morecomprehensive collection-based study is needed to confirm the actual Iranian occurrence of each species listed in thischecklist.
