This study was carried out to determine the species of the genus Opius Wesmael, 1835 in Hormozgan province (Southern Iran). Malaise traps and sweep nets were used to obtain adult specimens from various habitats in Hormozgan province during 2011-2013. Fifteen species from the genus Opius belonging to ten subgenera were collected. The subgenera Merotrachys Fischer, 1972 and Opiostomus Fischer, 1972 and eleven species are recorded for the first time from Iran: Opius (Agnopius) nowakowskii Fischer, 1959; Opius (Agnopius) novosimilis Fischer, 1989, Opius (Allophlebus) staryi Fischer, 1958; Opius (Allotypus) damnosus Papp, 1980; Opius (Opiostomus) riphaeus Tobias, 1986; Opius (Opiothorax) minusculae Fischer, 1967; Opius (Pendopius) bajariae Fischer, 1989; Opius (Merotrachys) penetrator Fischer 1966; Opius (Hypocynodus) flavipes Szepligeti, 1898; Opius (Hypocynodus) latidens Fischer, 1990 and Opius (Hypocynodus) latipediformis Fischer 2004. A key for identification of Opius species from southern Iran is provided.
本研究旨在确定霍尔木兹甘省(伊朗南部)的奥皮乌斯属(Opius Wesmael,1835)昆虫种类。2011年至2013年期间,使用马氏网和扫网从霍尔木兹甘省的不同栖息地采集成年标本。共采集到属于10个亚属的15种奥皮乌斯属昆虫。其中,费舍尔于1972年命名的Merotrachys亚属和Opiostomus亚属以及11个物种首次在伊朗被记录:1959年费舍尔命名的Opius (Agnopius) nowakowskii;1989年费舍尔命名的Opius (Agnopius) novosimilis;1958年费舍尔命名的Opius (Allophlebus) staryi;1980年帕普命名的Opius (Allotypus) damnosus;1986年托比亚斯命名的Opius (Opiostomus) riphaeus;1967年费舍尔命名的Opius (Opiothorax) minusculae;1989年费舍尔命名的Opius (Pendopius) bajariae;1966年费舍尔命名的Opius (Merotrachys) penetrator;1898年斯泽普利盖蒂命名的Opius (Hypocynodus) flavipes;1990年费舍尔命名的Opius (Hypocynodus) latidens;2004年费舍尔命名的Opius (Hypocynodus) latipediformis。文中还提供了一份伊朗南部奥皮乌斯属昆虫的鉴定检索表。
