The entomofaunas of salty Egyptian environments are reviewed in the present paper according to the available data. Most saltwater habitats were poor with insect fauna. Class Insecta was represented in seven lakes and completely disappeared in two hypersaline lakes, Bitter and Temsah. Chironomid larvae were the most abundant insects in the seven lakes followed by the mosquito larvae, especially in Suez Canal and Wadi El-Rayan. Other aquatic insects include Odonata, Hemiptera, Coleoptera, Trichoptera, and Collembola were represented as extremely low or completely absent. The richness of insect diversity was observed in Burullus and Wadi El-Rayan Lakes as well as the Red Sea coast (swamps and mangroves). It has also been observed that the physical and chemical characteristics of these habitats were changed due to the environmental and climatic changes. Consequently, led to changes in the insect species and other communities. Generally, the data and the studies of insect fauna in Egyptian saltwater are very poor. Also, the taxonomic identification to the level of genus and species is almost non-existent. This paper recommended more studies of insect fauna in these environments with more precise classification.

根据可获得的数据，本文对埃及咸水环境中的昆虫动物进行了综述。大多数盐水生境都缺乏昆虫类动物。昆虫纲类在七个湖泊中有代表，在两个盐度极高的湖泊（苦味湖和特姆萨湖）中完全消失了。Chironomid幼虫是七个湖泊中数量最多的昆虫，其次是蚊虫幼虫，尤其是在苏伊士运河和Wadi El-Rayan。其他水生昆虫包括Odonata，半翅目，鞘翅目，Trichoptera和Collembola，它们被表示为极低或完全不存在。在Burullus和Wadi El-Rayan湖以及红海沿岸（沼泽和红树林）中观察到昆虫多样性的丰富性。还已经观察到，由于环境和气候变化，这些栖息地的物理和化学特征也发生了变化。因此，导致了昆虫物种和其他群落的变化。通常，埃及盐水中昆虫区系的数据和研究非常差。同样，几乎没有分类鉴定到属和种的水平。本文建议对这些环境中的昆虫动物进行更多的研究，并进行更精确的分类。
