Agroecosystems containing edaphic Mesostigmata mites are considered important predators of nematodes, collembola, and insects, and those living on plants may be effective at controlling pests like spider mites. In the present research study, we provide new information about the Edaphic Mesostigmata mites known from the Isfahan metropolis in the central Iran based on the new field collection in ۲۰۱۹. In totally, thirty-two edaphic species belong to ۱۳ families, and ۲۵ genera collected and identified from Isfahan province (central Iran), of which four species are new records for the fauna of Iran (indicated by an asterisk). Twelve new provincial distribution records viz., Asca aphidioides (Linnaeus, ۱۷۵۸), Blattisocius tarsalis (Berlese, ۱۹۱۸), Cosmolaelaps claviger (Berlese, ۱۸۸۳), Gaeolaelaps neoaculeifer (Hrischmann, ۱۹۶۶)*, Gymnolaelaps obscuroides (Costa, ۱۹۶۸), Hypoaspis quadridentatus (Allred, ۱۹۷۰)*, Hypoaspisella asperatus (Berlese, ۱۹۰۴)*, H. patagoniensis (Sheals, ۱۹۶۲)*, Neoseiulus bicaudus (Wainstein, ۱۹۶۲), Parasitus mycophilus (Karg, ۱۹۷۱), Pogonolaelaps canestrinii (Berlese, ۱۹۰۳) and Polyaspis berlesei (Camin, ۱۹۵۴) are presented.
