description The identity and activity of an entomopathogenic fungus belonging to the <i>Entomophthora muscae</i> species complex and infecting <i>Musca domestica</i> in poultry houses from La Plata, Argentina, is reported. Entomophthora caused natural infections between September 2001 and September 2003. Primary conidia of this fungus were on average 29.5 ± 1.2 × 23.4 ± 2.4 µm and contained, on average, 10.5 ± 0.1 nuclei (range: 7–15) with an average diameter of 4.8 ± 0.1 µm. This fungus is identified as <i>E. ferdinandii</i> Keller (this specific epithet includes a nomenclaturally required spelling correction); this is a first record of <i>E. ferdinandii</i> in South America and of any member of the <i>E. muscae</i> species complex from flies in Argentina.
