Excepting C. vexilliger, these species are reported from Iran for the fi rst time. Description, measurements and illustrations are presented for all species, and SEM pictures for some of them. N. prominens is a rare species which has been previously reported from Europe; Iranian specimens agree well with those recorded from Hungary and Italy.
