The digger wasps fauna (Hymenoptera: Apoidea) of Fars province in southern Iran was partly investigated. Members of three families: Pemphredonidae (۵ species of ۳ genera), Psenidae (۳ species of ۲ genera) and Philanthidae (۲ species of ۲ genera) were collected and documented. The following eight species: Diodontus brevilabris de Beaumont, ۱۹۶۷, D. crassicornis Gribodo, ۱۸۹۴, D. insidiosus Spooner, ۱۹۳۸, Passaloecus corniger Shuckard, ۱۸۳۷, Pemphredon inornata Say, ۱۸۲۴, Mimesa punctipleuris (Gussakovskij, ۱۹۳۷), Psenulus laevigatus (Schenck, ۱۸۵۷) and Cerceris spinifera haladai K. Schmidt, ۲۰۰۰, are new to the Iranian wasp fauna. In addition, two species: Psenulus schencki (Tournier, ۱۸۸۹) and Philanthus variegatus Spinola, ۱۸۳۹, are new records for Fars province. For each species, we include available distributional data as well as comments on its taxonomy and geographical distribution.
