Data on 34 species of anthidiine bees collected in Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic of Azerbaijan are reported. Sixteen species are new to Azerbaijan as a whole, and six other species are new to Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic. A total of 46 species of Anthidiini are currently known from Azerbaijan, 41 of them are known from Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic. This is distinctly less in comparison with the adjacent faunas of Turkey (93 species) and Iran (75) but more than the understudied faunas of Georgia (16) and Armenia (17). It is assumed that the number of Anthidiini species in Azerbaijan may be at least by one-third larger than the figure given herein. Two new synonymies are proposed: Anthidium gussakovskiji Mavromoustakis, 1939 = A. akanthurum Nadimi et Talebi, 2014, syn. n., and A. wuestneii Mocsáry, 1887 = A. bischoffi dzhachrumicum Popov, 1967, syn. n.Anthidium punctatum Latreille, 1809 is also reported for the first time from Georgia and A. wuestneii is reported for the first time from Armenia.
