Iran. ABSTRACT. There is not a comprehensive cheklist on Halictidae family in Iran yet. In this survey, 1179 specimens of the Halictid bees collected from various area of Iran were examined. Among them, we found 78 species of Halictid bees as a major component of the Apoidea fauna in Iran. Herein, a list of the halictid bees, with localities name, geographical coordinations of localities, and number of male and female specimens is provided. Also, distribution of species in Iran, based on the material collected in this study and the worldwide distribution (where applicable) are presented. Five species are Received: recorded for the first time from following provinces, respectively: Lasioglossum 10 June, 2019 (Ctenonomia) vagans (Smith, 1857), from Sistan-o Baluchestan, Halictus Accepted: (Vestitohalictus) nasica Morawitz, 1876, from Isfahan and Sistan-o Baluchestan, 27 November, 2019 Halictus tetrazoinus (Klug, 1817) from Charmahal-o Bakhtiari, Halictus fatsensis Blüthgen, 1936, from Charmahal-o Bakhtiari, Halictus (Seladonia) fuscicollis Published: 04 December, 2019 Morawitz, 1876, from Sistan-o Baluchestan.

(2019) A survey on Halictidae (Hymenoptera, Apoidea) species available in Iranian Pollinator Insects Museum of Yasouj University. Journal of Insect Biodiversity and Systematics, 5 (3), 231–261. Introduction Bees (Hymenoptera, Apoidea, Apiformes) Melittidae, Megachilidae and Apidae are one of the most diverse groups of insect (Michener, 2007). Halictidae is the second with approximately 20.000 described largest group of bees. Faunistic studies on species in the world (Michener, 2007; the pollinator bees of Iran are limited. Ascher & Pickering, 2015) Bees have an Ebmer 1978 reported nearly 180 species of especial importance for ecosystems. Almost Halictidae from northern Iran with 123 75% of agricultural production depends on new records to the Iranian fauna. The most pollination intensivity (Kirkitadze & important subfamilies are Halictinae and Japoshvili, 2015). Super family Apoidea is Nomiinae, which respectively including divided into seven families: Stenotritidae, 80% and 12% of the species, compared with Colletidae, Halictidae, Andrenidae, only 2% of the species in the Nomioidinae Corresponding author: Alireza Monfared, E-mail: [email protected] Copyright © 2019, Hosseini et al.

The nest architecture of the Halictinae was studied in detail by SareceMl & MTCIIENER (1962), with taking into accountthe most of data existent by that tirne. These authors have distinguished 8 types arrd I I subtypes of halictine nests. In those groups one finds almost all known nest types properto burrowing bees (Figs.47-62). The most species build their nests in soil, although some of thern sporadically or constantly settle in rotten wood, e.g. some Augochlorini. Sorne species exhibit a great plasticity in the choice of place for nest construction. For exarnple, nests of Halicttts rubicundus were registered both in grourrd (BONel-lt, 1967b BATRA, 1968;and sotneotlrers), and in rotten wood (Ml- CHENËR& wrLLE, l96l). Halictipe nests are as a rule characterised by the presence of nest turrets, which are formed iu result of cerlerrtation of soil parlicles ott the walls of the en- trance passiug throrlgh a conical tumulus.
