Scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccoidea) are economically important pests in Egypt. Entomopathogenic fungi are considering principal pathogens among piercing sucking insects including scales. Very little attention was paid to the potential of fungal pathogens for scales in Egypt. In the following compilation, data on the record of fungal pathogen of the scale insects in Egypt, their host insects, host plants, locality distribution and identify are summarized. Assessof these entomopathogens in biocontrol experiments against scales and practical application under laboratory, field conditions and commercials utilization are also included. The aim of this review is to overview on the pathogenic fungal-scales relationships in Egypt.
