Abstract: A faunistic study of the tribe Spilomicrini Ashmead, 1893 (Hymenoptera: Diapriidae, Diapriinae) has been carried out in Iran. This study is based on the material collected using Malaise traps in four provinces of Iran, including Guilan, Mazandaran, Golestan, and Markazi. The genus Paramesius with one species and Spilomicrus with four species are documented and illustrated for the first time from Iran: P. rufipes Westwood, 1832, S. bipunctatus Kieffer, 1911, S. brevimalaris Hübner & Chemyreva, 2024, S. rufitarsis Kieffer, 1911 and S. stigmaticalis Westwood, 1832. A key to the Iranian Spilomicrini is provided.
