This paper is about the existence of traveling wave solutions for a delayed nonlocal dispersal SIR epidemic model with the critical wave speed. Because of the introduction of nonlocal dispersal and the generality of incidence function, it is difficult to investigate the existence of critical traveling waves. To this end, we construct an auxiliary system and show the existence of traveling waves for the auxiliary system. Employing the results for the auxiliary system, we obtain the existence of traveling waves for the delayed nonlocal dispersal SIR epidemic model with the critical wave speed under mild conditions.
