( Figs 9a–b View FIGURES 7–12 and 26 View FIGURES 24–39 )

Tettigometra longicornis Signoret, 1866: 159 View in CoL Material examined. Ardabil province: Majareh, 21–22.vii.1996, leg. R. Linnavuori, 1 specimen ( NMWC) ; Gilan province: Rostamabad, Salansar, 6–8.v.2001, leg. R. & S. Linnavuori, 1 specimen ( NMWC). This is the first record of the species from Iran .

Distribution and habitat. Dlabola (1981) recognized the species as an arboreal-pontomediteranean faunal element, found in steppes of Anatoly. According to Nast (1972), the species is distributed in Northern Africa, Western, Southern, Central and Eastern Europe, Caucasus, Turkey, Central Asia and Afghanistan. These records in northwestern Iran ( Fig. 26 View FIGURES 24–39 ) are the first ones for the country. However, due to the distribution of the species from north of Africa to central Asia and Afghanistan, it may be present also in central north and northeast of Iran.
