INTRODUCTION
Several series of D. scabricolle collected recently in Iran by Czech Republic colleagues allowed me to begin the study of the taxonomy diversity of Iranian populations. Several abbreviations used in the text: MD - collection of M. Danilevsky, Moscow (Russia) ML - collection of M. Lazarev, Moscow (Russia) VS - collection of V.
