چکیده

The genus Caradrina Ochsenheimer, 1816 is restricted to Holarctic and Ethiopian regions. Small inconspicuous appearance of its species is such that determination of the well over 150 species is one of the most difficult problems among all Noctuidae. According to light trap samplings which were made in different parts of Iran during 2010-2016, the present paper offers new data on the distribution of Caradrina species in Iran and reports Caradrina turcomana Hacker, 2004, as a new record for the Iranian fauna. Furthermore, we provide a catalogue of the genus Caradrina of Iran including 56 species and 11 subspecies togeather with available information on the type locality, synonyms, distribution and bionomics for all of the recorded species as well as discussion on the recent relevant publications.
