The acanthocephalan fauna of Iran is reported for the first time since the report of Pomphorhynchus perforator (von Linstow, 1908) Meyer, 1932 in 1964. The knowledge of the acanthocephalan biodiversity of Iran, with parasite-host and host-parasite checklists, is presented. The species of Acanthocephala are presented in alphabetical order, followed by the species of hosts, localities and references. A total of 30 known species of Acanthocephala from 21 genera, 12 families and 7 orders are reported from 80 species of different vertebrates of Iran. One species, Moniliformis moniliformis (Bremser, 1811) Travassos, 1915 was recorded from humans. The group of hosts with the largest number of reported species of acanthocephalan is Actinopterygii (ray-finned fishes).
自1964年报告穿孔多形棘头虫（冯·林斯托，1908年；迈耶，1932年）以来，首次报道了伊朗的棘头虫动物区系。本文介绍了伊朗棘头虫生物多样性的相关知识，并列出了寄生虫-宿主和宿主-寄生虫清单。棘头虫物种按字母顺序排列，随后是宿主物种、产地和参考文献。据报道，伊朗80种不同脊椎动物体内共有来自21个属、12个科和7个目的30种已知棘头虫。有一种，即串珠状念珠棘头虫（布雷姆泽，1811年；特拉瓦索斯，1915年）在人类体内被记录到。报告的棘头虫物种数量最多的宿主类群是辐鳍鱼纲（硬骨鱼）。
