Distribution in the Middle East and North Africa
Iran (Starý et al. 2000; Talebi et al. 2009; Mossadegh et al. 2011; Nazari et al. 2012; Rakhshani et al. 2005a, 2006a, 2008a; 2008b, 2012b; Rakhshani 2012; Barahoei et al. 2013; Taheri & Rakhshani 2013); Saudi Arabia (new record).
General distribution
Eastern Palaearctic (Middle East), Neotropical (Chile), Oriental.
Remarks
Based on molecular and morphological studies, this species was separated from Aphidius colemani (Tomanović et al. 2014). All host records of Aphidius colemani Viereck, 1912 in Iran (Barahoei et al. 2014; Farahani et al. 2016) referring to Aphidius platensis. Other records of Aphidius colemani from the Western Asia and records of Aphidius transcaspicus Telenga from the aphids other than Hyalopterus spp. most probably refer to Aphidius platensis.
