Abstract

The geographical distribution and diversity of the scorpion fauna of Egypt was examined based on a large collection covering most of the country and in view of recent revisionary systematics. Six ecologically distinct zoogeographical regions are targeted in a collection scheme. The ecological and historical biogeography of the present-day distribution of the scorpion fauna of Egypt is discussed.
