Keys for identification of species of family Calliphoridae (Diptera) in Egypt.
The present taxonomic study assists in the recognition of all known Egyptian species of Calliphoridae by keys to genera and species accompanied by synonyms in the light of modern taxonomic concepts. Eight genera are recorded in A.R. Egypt including 14 species. Hemipyrellia pulchra (Wied) is recorded for the first time in Egypt. Chrysomyia chloropyga (Wied) was recorded by Pont (1979) in his study of Synanthropic flies in Saudi Arabia, this species was not recorded or mentioned before him in Egypt and is not represented in our collections.
