Abstract: This paper reviews the research on of the Trombidioidea in Iran, with an updated checklist of 32 species (+5 undetermined species) belonging to five families and 22 genera. Among them, 27 species (+1 undetermined species) are reported based on larvae only, three undetermined species based on adults only, and six species based on both larval and post- larval stages. Also, 14 species (+3 undetermined species) and 10 genera belonging to the family , one undetermined species belonging to the family Podothrombiidae, 13 species (+1 undetermined species) and seven genera belonging to the family , three species, three genera belonging to the family Neothrombiidae and two species and one genus belonging to the family Achaemenothrombiidae. Major contributions to the Iranian fauna of the Trombidioidea were made by Alireza Saboori and his colleagues, and Zhi-Qiang Zhang. There have been some studies on the biology and the application of the Trombidioidea in biological control in Iran.

Keywords: velvet mites, larvae, predators, Trombidioidea, ectoparasites, faunistics, biology

Zhang on citrus leaves was studied by Saboori et al. and Norbakhsh (1995) described a new genus i.e. (2003). Hosseini et al.

Trombidiidae and a key to world larval species Saboori et al. (2006) described a new genus and of Allothrombium. Later, one of these species species from larvae ectoparasitic on Hyalopterus i.e., A. triticium was considered as junior pruni (Geoffroy) (Hemiptera: Aphididae) from synonym of A. meridionale Berlese, 1910 by Oskoo, East Azarbaijan province.
