Material examined. Holotype. Female: NE Iran, Razavi Khorasan province, Torbat Heydarie, Feiz-Abad (34º 57' 23" N, 58º 45' 18" E), altitude 895 m, ex Scarabaeus transcaspicus , 5 May 2007 (deposited in AETMU). Paratypes. 27 females, 3 males, 5 deutonymphs, same data as holotype (deposited in AETMU); 2 females, 1 male, same data as holotype (deposited in MZUNAV); 1 female, same data as holotype (deposited in MZTU).
Etymology. The species is named in honour of the famous philosopher, astronomer, mathematician and poet of Iran, Omar Khayyam Neishaburi.
Notes. Cryptoseius khayyami differs from the type species C. petrovae Makarova, 1998 in the number of long dorsal setae in the j series in adults, four pairs in C. petrovae (j3-j6) and three pairs in C. khayyami sp. nov. (j3, j4 and j6) and in the relative length of several dorsal setae in deutonymphs: r5> R1, R1 = 1/3 s6, S4 <S5 = ½ S 3 in C. petrovae and r5 <R1, R1 = ½ s6, S4 = S5 = S 3 in C. khayyami sp. nov.
