I r a n i a n r e c o r d s: Persia, without further information.

R e m a r k s TRAUTMANN (1927) and BALTHASAR (1953) listed Chrysis comparata Lepeletier for Persia, without precise locality information and for this reason ROSA et al. (2013) considered it doubtfully for Iran. The occurrence of this species is now confirmed.
