- Abstract
A faunistic survey of aphids was carried out in the centre of Iran. Aphids were collected and identified from 14 host plants. Thirteen species, belonging to 3 families (Aphididae, Pemphigidae, Lachnidae) were recorded. According to collected data, the family Aphididae had the highest number identified species of the 3 families. The greatest diversity of aphids was found on plants of the family Rosaceae. All the species have been reported for Iran from other provinces in the past; however, they are new reports for Yazd province. Nine species of ladybirds were also identified.
