Sumario:BACKGROUND: The Middle Eastern species of Eudorylas Aczél, 1940 are revised through an integrative taxonomic approach by combining morphological and sequence data from the mitochondrial COI barcoding gene. Four new species of the genus Eudorylas are described, males and females of three species are associated, DNA sequence data of 11 Middle Eastern Eudorylas species are provided and 15 additional species are discussed. To facilitate their recognition, we provide diagnoses, descriptions, an identification key and distributional maps for all species. NEW INFORMATION: The following new species are described from the Middle East: E.avis Motamedinia & Skevington sp. n., E.bihamatus Motamedinia & Skevington sp. n., E.corniculans Motamedinia & Skevington sp. n., E.nasicus Motamedinia & Skevington sp. n.
