Abstract

Twenty-six Anthophora species belonging to Subgenus Lophanthophra Brooks (10 species) & Subgenus Paramegilla Friese (16 species) are revised taxonomically.A. rutilans Dours is transferred from the first Subgenus Lophanthophra Brooks to Subgenus Paramegilla Friese due to its obvious dilated & hunped hind basitarsus as most related Paramegillian species than the not conspicuous weak mid-leg brushes. Many specimens are collected from various localities and genitalia are desiccated. Keys, diagnostic characters, synonyms, coloured pictures, line drawing illustrations, and the distribution are introduced, in addition to Scanning Electron Microscopic photographs are taken for A. hispanica (Fabricius). A. Shoumarae Rawda is redescribed, A. boops Alfken still considered as distinct species, not as a synonym of A. vidua (Klug).
