Abstract :In this study, we investigated the fauna of Zygentoma in different regions of Kermanshah Province (Kermanshah, Iran) during 2013. Among the different specimens collected, the species Neoasterolepisma priesneri (Stach, 1946) was found, being new for Iran and for Asia. Moreover, the capture of a representative of the genus Trinemophora (Schaeffer, 1897) represents the first citation of the family Protrinemuridae in Iran.Keywords : Protrinemuridae, Neoasterolepisma priesneri, Trinemophora sp., Iranian fauna, Zygentoma, Thysanura s. s., Lepismatidae
