Abstract: Twenty-two Dactylogyrus, one Ancyrocephalus and one Dogelius spp. were found on Iranian natural water fishes in three water systems. Of them, thirteen Dactylogyrus spp. and Ancyrocephalus paradoxus were identified to species and Dogelius mokhayeri sp. n. was described as a new species. All species found are new for the Iranian fauna. Nine Dactylogyrus spp., which all seem to be new, undescribed species and had been collected mostly in the gulf region, were identified to the genus.
