17 species of Rhopalocera are reported from Iran for the first time, belonging to suborder Rhopalocera, families Pieridae, Lycaenidae, Nymphalidae and Satyridae. Some are confirmations to previous records. Two individual forms of Danaus chrysippus L. (Danaidae) are firstly recorded from the country. Additional comments are also given.
Insects with 2 pairs of membranous wings; cross-veins few in number. The body, wings and appendages clothed with broad scales. Mandibles almost always vestigial or absent, and the principal mouthparts generally represented by a suctorial proboscis formed by the maxillae. Larvae eruciform, peripneustic, frequently with 8 pairs of limbs. Pupae usually adecticous and more or less obtect, and generally enclosed in a cocoon or an earthen cell; a few primitive forms decticous and exarate. Wing tracheation complete.
