            <p>Colour. Pale cream when alive.</p>

            <p> Remarks. The new species is very similar to  Linotetranus anatolicus Doġan &amp; Dönel, 2010 , by having the same leg setal formula and dorsal idiosomal reticulations, however  L. iranensis sp. nov. differs from  L. anatolicus by: setae f3 and h2 are the longest dorsal setae in the former whereas setae h3 are the longest in  L. anatolicus ; dorsal setae c1 are about half the length of the distance between c1-c2 vs c1 longer than distance between the bases in the latter; pattern on ventral cuticle between setae 2a -3a with regular rectangular reticulations arranged in transverse rows vs transverse linear pattern in the latter; dorsal setae e2 three times longer than distance between setae e1-e 2 in  L. iranensis vs e2 shorter than e1-e 2 in  L. anatolicus ; palp tarsus with four simple setae + one eupathidium + one solenidion in the new species vs two simple setae and four eupathidia in the latter; ventral cuticle irregularly reticulate in the new species vs ventral cuticle smooth between 4a -ag 1 in  L. anatolicus and differences in the length of dorsal setae: c2 96–115 [120] vs 60–73 [68]; e3 105–120 [118] vs 80–85 [85]; e4 91 –98 [96] vs 50–56 [53]; h2 185–215 [223] vs 50–65 [53], h3 83–98 [80] vs 150–158 [138]. Also the new species closely resembles  Linotetranus niknami Bagheri &amp; Haddad, 2008 from Iran, in having the same leg setal formula and cuticular pattern; however it differs from  L. niknami by: posterior dorsal opisthosoma is weakly striated in the former but smooth in the latter; ventral cuticle between setae 3a -4a with small reticulations in the new species whereas the reticulations are large and more elongate on  L. niknami ; setae 2a are serrate in  L. iraniensis while they are smooth on  L. niknami ; setae ps1-3 about equal in length in the former versus ps2-3 about half length of ps 1 in latter; palp tarsus with one eupathidium and four smooth setae in the new species whereas the latter has palp tarsus with four eupathidia and two smooth setae; genu I with one modified seta in the former opposed to genu I without modified seta in the latter; and there are some dorsal setae length differences: c4 120–132 [131] vs. 103–104 [103]; e2 95 –116 [104] vs. 54–66 [54]. </p>
            <p>Etymology. This species is named after the country where it was collected, Iran.</p>

            <p> Remarks. The new species resembles  Linotetranus anatolicus Doġan &amp; Dönel, 2010 by having the same leg setal formula and pattern of idiosomal striation, however  L. astragalusi sp. nov. differs from  L. anatolicus by: setae h2 is the longest dorsal setae in the former whereas setae h 3 the longest in  L. anatolicus ; dorsal setae c1 as long as distance c1-c2 vs c1 longer than distance between the bases in the latter; setae c4 longer than distance to d2 vs c4 shorter than distance to d 2 in the latter; posterior part of dorsal idiosoma without fossettes vs several pairs of fossettes in  L. anatolicus ; pattern on ventral cuticle between setae 2a -3a with regular rectangular reticulations arranged in transverse rows vs transverse linear pattern in  L. anatolicus ; dorsal setae e2 longer than distance between setae e1-e 2 in the new species vs e2 shorter than e1-e 2 in  L. anatolicus ; palp tarsus with four simple setae + one eupathidium + one solenidion in the former vs two simple setae and four eupathidia in  L. anatolicus ; ventral cuticle between 4a -ag1 reticulate vs smooth in  L. anatolicus ; and differences in the length of dorsal setae: c2 35 [34] vs 67 [68]; e3 56 [58] vs 82 [85]; e4 28 [29] vs 52 [53]; h2 153 [152] vs 57 [53], h3 65 [65] vs 154 [138]. </p>
            <p> Linotetranus astragalusi sp. nov. also appears morphologically similar to  L. annae Meyer &amp; Ueckermann, 1997 , sharing the same leg setal formulae and general body appearance, however  L. astragalusi differs from  L. annae by: setae h2 are the longest dorsal setae in the former but f3 are the longest in the latter; length of setae c1 about one half of c 2 in the new species but about the third of c 2 in  L. annae ; dorsal setae v 1 in the former more serrate than that of the latter; cells of ventral reticulation in new species longer than that of  L. annae ; ventral setae 1a extending to base of palp genu; ag2 about two thirds the length of ag1; g2 shorter than g 1 in  L. astragalusi vs 1a extending to base of palp femur; ag1-2 and g1-3 subequal in length; palp tarsus with one eupathidium and one solenidion in the former vs palp tarsus with two eupathidia and without solenidia in  L. annae ; dorsal setae c1, c2, d1, e1, f1-3 serrate in the new species but same setae smooth in the latter; setae ag2 located on smooth cuticle in  L astragalusi whereas ag2 is situated on areolate cuticle in  L. annae ; palp tibial claw in apex not curved in  L astragalusi opposed to palp tibial claw in apex curved on  L. annae ; palp femur seta short and not to reach to base of palp tibia, smooth vs shorter than base of palp tibia, serrate; the longest seta of tarsus I about 1.5 times length of tarsus in  L. astragalusi vs three times length of tarsus in  L. annae ; length of dorsal setae c2 34 [34] vs 54–66; h3 65 [65] vs 91–139. </p>
            <p> Etymology. This species is named after the gum plant,  Astragalus gossypinus Fisch. , with which it is associated. </p>
