New faunistic and taxonomic data are provided for 18 families of Iranian spiders. Eleven species from eastern Iran are described as new to science: Cheiracanthium minusculum Zamani & Marusik, sp. nov. (♂; Sistan & Baluchistan), C. monstrum Zamani & Marusik, sp. nov. (♂♀; South Khorasan), C. sistani Zamani & Marusik, sp. nov. (♀; Sistan & Baluchistan) [Cheiracanthiidae], Cithaeron persicus Zamani & Marusik, sp. nov. (♀; Sistan & Baluchistan) [Cithaeronidae], Archaeodictyna longichela Zamani & Marusik, sp. nov. (♂♀; Sistan & Baluchistan), Devade miniatura Zamani & Marusik, sp. nov. (♀; Razavi Khorasan) [Dictynidae], Talanites sakastanicus Zamani & Marusik, sp. nov. (♀; Sistan & Baluchistan) [Gnaphosidae], Philodromus parvulus Zamani & Marusik, sp. nov.

(♀; Sistan & Baluchistan) [Theridiidae] and Bassaniodes drangianus Zamani & Marusik, sp. nov. (♂♀; Sistan & Baluchistan) [Thomisidae]. The females of Trichothyse hamipalpis (Kroneberg, 1875) [Gnaphosidae] and Rhysodromus medes Zamani & Marusik, 2021 are described for the first time. A new combination, Rhysodromus latrophagus (Levy, 1999) comb. nov. (ex. Philodromus), is proposed. The subfamily Coelotinae, the genus Brignoliolus Ovtchinnikov, 1999 [both Agelenidae] and seven species are reported from Iran for the first time, and the Iranian record of Steatoda nobilis (Thorell, 1875) is rejected.
