Polystomophora arakensis Moghaddam and Phenacoccus salviacus Moghaddam are described and illustrated in detail from Iran. The species P. arakensis was collected from the roots of Atraphaxis sp. (Family: Polygonaceae) and P. salviacus was collected from the leaves of Salvia bracteata (Family: Labiatae). The genera Phenacoccus and Polystomophora are briefly reviewed and a key to the Iranian species of Phenacoccus is provided.
