This project was conducted to study the taxonomy of tribe Vicieae based on morphological characters. The specimens were collected from different parts of Khorassan, and after identification they were preserved at Ferdowsi University of Mashhad Herbarium (FUMH). Diagnostic keys and a complete list of distribution regions for all species of this tribe in Khorassan were presented. Cicer kermanense, Vicia truncatula, V. cappadocica, V. variabilis, Lens culinaris, Lathyrus pratensis and V. sphaericus are reported for the first time for the flora of Khorassan provinces and V. pseudocassobica is probably as a synonym of V. venulosa.
