In order to improve the knowledge of the Caelifera species of north eastern Iran, faunistic investigations on grasshoppers of this region were carried out during 2013-2014. Collected specimens as well as deposited specimens in Insect Museum of Ferdowsi University of Mashhad were examined, in detail. Totally 19 species belonging to 17 genera, 9 subfamilies and 3 families were collected and determined. Among them Paranocarodes straubei is newly recorded for the fauna of Iran. In addition to faunistic records, differences in species diversity and captured numbers upon time of day were investigated via sweep sampling at two rangeland sites during 2013-2014. There were no significant differences among capture rates in various day hours; so standardized grasshopper sampling could be done between the hours of 8:00 and 16:00 to generate consistent estimates of rangeland grasshopper densities.

A survey on parasitic copepods was carried out on Pampus argenteus Euphrasen, 1788 in Hormozgan province. Totally, 62 specimens were caught by bottom trawl from northwest of Qeshm Island in summer 2010 and winter 2011. These were immediately frozen in on-board deep freezer of fishing vessel. All samples were transferred to laboratory and after measuring fish weight and length, parasitological survey implemented by stereo-and light microscopes on body surface and gill cavities of the host. Individuals belong to two species of parasitic copepods were removed from the inner surface of the operculum and gill filaments of the host. The collected parasites were Nothobomolochus triceros (Basset- Smith, 1898) and Paralebion aliuncus (Rangnekar, 1955). The prevalence, mean intensity and abundance of parasites were as follows: N. triceros (6.45%, 0.8 ± 0.71 and 0.06) and P. aliuncus (1.61%, 0.2 ± 0.17 and 0.01), respectively. Both species of copepod parasites are reported, for the first time, from Iran.

The burrowing skinks of the genus Ophiomorus Duméril and Bibron, 1839 with eleven described species distributed from Greece through southwest Asia to northwestern India (Anderson and Leviton, 1966; Nilson and Andrén, 1978; Anderson, 1999; Kazemi et al., 2011). The main diagnostic exo-morphological characteristics of these lovely lizards are described as follows: body elongate; limbs greatly reduced or absent; eye small, lower eyelid with an undivided, transparent disc; ear opening absent or hidden; “nostril between an upper and lower nasal scale, both of uncertain homology; prefrontal scales separated; frontal scale hour-glass shaped due to constriction of frontal by first supraocular (except in O. latastii); frontoparietal and parietal distinct; postmentals two; dorsal and lateral body scales with one or sometimes two (in tandem) minute pits in central posterior part of scale” (Boulenger, 1887; Anderson and Leviton, 1966; Anderson, 1999; Greer and Wilson, 2001). Iran hosts seven species of the genus including the Iranian endemic species namely Ophiomorus maranjabensis Kazemi, Farhadi Qomi, Kami and Anderson, 2011; O. nuchalis Nilson and Andrén, 1978; O. persicus (Steindachner, 1867); O. streeti Anderson and Leviton, 1966; and native species including O. blanfordii (Boulenger, 1887) from Pakistan and Iran; O. brevipes (Blanford, 1874) from Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan; and O. tridactylus (Blyth, 1853) from Iran, Pakistan and Afghanistan (Leviton, 1959; Anderson and Leviton, 1966; Anderson, 1999; Khan, 2004; Gholamifard, 2011; Kazemi et al., 2011). Šmíd et al. (2014) recorded eight species of Ophiomorus for Iran, but listed seven species of the genus (the above mentioned species). Based on Ananjeva et al. (2006) perhaps the eighth member of the genus Ophiomorus for the herpetofauna of Iran is O. chernovi Anderson and Leviton, 1966, as they included it for northeast of Iran (“on the left bank of Tejen River” of Iran), whereas the holotype of this rare species is from “Pul-i-Khatun, at confluence of Geshef-Rud and Hari-Rud” in Turkmen, near the Iranian and Afghan borders (Anderson and Leviton, 1966). However O. chernovi not listed among the Iranian lizards by Anderson (1999), Rastegar-Pouyani et al. (2008), Kamali (2013), and Šmíd et al. (2014). Archive of SID
穴居石龙子属(Ophiomorus dum和Bibron), 1839年,有11种已描述的石龙子分布于希腊、西南亚到印度西北部(Anderson and Leviton, 1966;Nilson and andr, 1978;安德森,1999;Kazemi et al., 2011)。这些可爱的蜥蜴的主要诊断外形态特征描述如下:身体细长;四肢大大缩小或无;眼睛小,下眼睑具一不分开,透明的圆盘;耳孔无或隐藏;“鼻孔位于上下鼻鳞之间,两者同源性不确定;前额鳞片分离;额鳞片沙漏状,由于第一眼上的额部收缩(除了在O. latastii);额顶叶和顶叶不同;postmentals两个;背部和侧面的身体鳞片在鳞片的后部中央有一个或有时两个(串联的)小坑”(Boulenger, 1887;Anderson and Leviton, 1966;安德森,1999;格里尔和威尔逊,2001)。伊朗有7种该属昆虫,其中包括伊朗特有物种,即马兰贾布蛇(Ophiomorus maranjabensis Kazemi, Farhadi Qomi, Kami and Anderson, 2011);O. nuchalis Nilson and andr, 1978;O. persicus (Steindachner, 1867);O. streeti Anderson and Leviton, 1966;本地种包括来自巴基斯坦和伊朗的O. blanfordii (Boulenger, 1887);O. brevipes (Blanford, 1874),来自伊朗、阿富汗和巴基斯坦;和来自伊朗、巴基斯坦和阿富汗的O. tridactylus (Blyth, 1853) (Leviton, 1959;Anderson and Leviton, 1966;安德森,1999;汗,2004;Gholamifard, 2011;Kazemi et al., 2011)。Šmíd et al.(2014)在伊朗记录了8种Ophiomorus,但列出了该属的7种(上述种)。根据Ananjeva等人(2006)的研究,可能伊朗爬虫动物群中蛇足属的第八名成员是O. chernovi Anderson和Leviton(1966),因为他们将其包括在伊朗东北部(伊朗“Tejen河左岸”),而这种稀有物种的原型来自土库曼的“pull -i- khatun,在Geshef-Rud和Hari-Rud交汇处”,靠近伊朗和阿富汗边界(Anderson和Leviton, 1966)。然而,O. chernovi并没有被Anderson(1999)、Rastegar-Pouyani et al.(2008)、Kamali(2013)和Šmíd et al.(2014)列为伊朗蜥蜴。SID档案

The Spotted Toad-headed Agama, Phrynocephalus maculatus, is a member of the Agamidae family distributed in the central and south-eastern deserts of Iran. Iranian specimens are rare in collections. In this research, the female reproductive cycle of this species was studied from April 5 to August 5, 2013. Totally, 15 adult females were collected by hand at midday from southern parts of Damghan County, located in Semnan Province of Iran. Ovaries were removed and processed for histological and morphometric studies. The oogenic cycle begins from early April, mating occurs at the beginning of May, with oviposition occurring from late May to mid July. Females lay 2-3 eggs per clutch with the possibility of producing a secondary clutch later in the season. Maximum reproductive activity occurs in May and early June and reduces from early July and ends in August. There was no significant difference between the right and left side of the reproductive system. Hence, oogenesis occurs from April through July, Ph. maculatus follows an associated reproductive cycle typical for temperate species.
