Abstract
Four new species of the genus Astragalus L. sect. Hymenostegis Bunge are described from NW Iran, prov. Zanjan: A. austromahneshanensis, A. qeydarnabiensis, A. subkohrudicus, and A. subrecognitus. They are compared with their closest relatives. Furthermore, A. sosnowskyi Grossh. is recorded for the first time from Iran and A. velenovskyi N?b?lek is excluded from the list of Iranian species of Astragalus. Based on these new findings, the number of species attributed to sect. Hymenostegis reaches to 57, with an endemism rate of about 75% in Iran.
