This study aimed to identify different species of aphids and their host plants in different habitats in the southern areas of Zagros Mountains. The specimens were collected directly from their host plants in spring 2020 to summer 2021. In total, 66 aphid species belonging to 32 genera were identified on 64 host plant species. Of these, Macrosiphoniella umarovi Narzikulov, 1972 is found for the first time in Iran.
