| Abstract | ||
| Ctenopelmatinae is a relatively large subfamily of the parasitoid wasps of the family Ichneumonidae containing more than 1200 described species worldwide (5). Members of this subfamily are known as parasitoids of sawflies (Hym.: Symphyta) and some species have been introduced from Europe to North America and Canada as biological control agents of sawflies pests (4). Ctenopelmatines have morphologically a small tooth at the apical end of fore tibia and mostly a short ovipositor. There have been yet only ten recorded species of this subfamily from Iran (1; 2). Here, a genus and species of this subfamily is newly reported from Kerman province, Iran. Samplings were done during 2014-2015 using 8 Malaise traps in Jiroft and Faryab counties, southern Iran. The collected specimen of this species was Identified by the forth author, R. Jussila, a specialist on the family Ichneumonidae. Specimen of this species is deposited in the insects collection of Department of Plant Protection, College of Agriculture, Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman, Iran. | ||
