In order to study the fauna of ichneumonid wasps (Hym., Ichneumonidae), a survey was carried out during 2010-2013 in various localities in Khorasan-e-Razavi province. Samples were collected using sweeping net by irregular patterns on the common field crops and in the orchards. In total, 234 specimens were collected and identified. They consisted of 26 species belonging to 25 genera of 12 subfamilies. Among them, 16 species were new for Khorasan-e-Razavi fauna including Anomalon cruentatum (Geoffroy, 1785) and Barylypa propugnator (Geoffroy, 1785) (Anomaloninae); Exetastes syriacus Schmiedeknecht, 1910 and Lissonota pleuralis (Brischke, 1880) (Banchinae); Diadegma semiclausum (Hellén, 1949) and Sinophorus xanthostomus (Gravenhorst, 1829) (Campopleginae); Dichrogaster longicaudata (Thomson, 1884), Dichrogaster saharator (Aubert, 1964) and Trychosis legator (Thunberg, 1822) (Cryptinae); Enizemum ornatum (Gravenhorst, 1829), Homotropus signatus (Gravenhorst, 1829) and Promethes sulcator (Gravenhorst, 1829) (Diplazontinae); Diadromus collaris (Gravenhorst, 1829), Dicaelotus pumilus (Gravenhorst, 1829) and Ichneumon proletarius Wesmael, 1848 (Ichneumoninae); Orthocentrus strigatus Holmgren, 1858 (Orthocentrinae). Three species including Exetastes syriacus, Lissonota pleuralis and Dicaelotus pumilus were new records for the fauna of Iran.
