New data on the distribution of eight Sphecid wasps species (Hymenoptera: Apoidea: Sphecidae) collected from different localities in southern areas of Kerman province (southeast Iran) are presented. The specimens were collected at 21 localities using Malaise traps from April to September 2017. The identified species belong to three subfamilies, Ammophilinae André, 1886 (three species, two genera), Sceliphrinae Ashmead, 1899 (a single species), and Sphecinae Latreille, 1802 (four species, two genera, two tribes). Palmodes parvulus (Roth, 1967) is newly recorded for the Iranian fauna, and its diagnostic characters are presented.
