Abstract
An overview of the genus Sepsis in Pakistan is presented. Two species are newly recorded for the country: S. coprophila de Meijere, 1906, and S. indica Wiedemann, 1824. A brief diagnosis and detailed photographs of the newly recorded species are provided. The dorsal and lateral habitus of the following four species are also presented: S. dissimilis Brunetti, 1910, S. nitens Wiedemann, 1824, S. orthocnemis Frey, 1908, and S. thoracica (Robineau-Desvoidy, 1830). An updated checklist, key to known species, and distribution data in Pakistan are summarized.
