Abstract | ||||
The gathered information indicated that subfamily Ocladiinae represented in Egypt by seven species within a single genus, Ocladius Schöenherr, 1825. The species of genus Ocladius (Coleoptera: Brachyceridae) received little attention in Egypt and the Palearctic region. Diagnoses to facilitate the identification of the subfamily and the genus were provided. Seven species of genus Ocladius kyed and illustrated to facilitate the accurate identification of the studied species. Taxonomic status of all categories were revived and updated according to most recent taxonomic catalogues | ||||
