Neoheegeria persica Priesner, 1954: 54. This species was described from a single female collected on Prangos ferulacea[ Apiaceae] in Iran. Subsequently, Minaei et al. (2007) collected this species from various plants including Astragalussp. and Phlomissp. More recently, a series of both sexes was collected from Mentha pulegium[ Lamiaceae] at Sepidan (Fars province). The only difference between persicaand dalmaticais the color of antennal segments III–VI. The fustis in the ninth abdominal segment was reported in persicato be unusually elongate (Minaei et al. 2007), but this is not confirmed by the specimens collected recently on Mentha pulegium.
