Abstract

During this research, the foretic mites related to the order coleoptera were investigated in Saravan and Sistan region during 1400-1401. The samples of insects containing phoretic mites were collected from different areas of Saravan (Saravan, Mehrestan, Sib and Soran and Jalek/Golshan) and Sistan (Nimroz, Zahak, Zabol, Hamon and Hirmand) in different methodsand separated by host and transferredinto special containers. 75% alcohol and the label containing sampling information was installed on them. In the laboratory, first, the insect samples were examined under binoculars, and if ticks were attached to their bodies, photographs were taken, and then the mites attached to the insects were separated and permanent microscopic slides were prepared from them using clear relativity solution and Heuer's solution according to common methods. and were identified with the help of reliable scientific sources. In this research, a total of 22 species of 18 genera belonging to 12 families and three sub-orders have been identified by the strict examination of the winged members of the families Scarabaeidae, Carabaeidae, Scolytidae, Buprestidae, Curculioninae, and Elateridae. The report of 22 species is new for Sistan and Baluchistan province.
