Ophiomorus streeti: a new record is the second record of the species and extends its distribution 235 km and is a new record for Kerman Province. Ophiomorus nuchalis: a new record represents the northwesternmost for the species and extends its distribution 120 km and is the only record for Alborz Province. Ophiomorus persicus: a new record represents the southeasternmost locality and broadens its distribution 100 km and is a new record for Hormozgan Province. Moreover, the known distribution is given.
