Augustamnica (Latin) or Augoustamnike (Greek) was a Roman province of Egypt[1] created during the 4th century and was part of the Diocese of Oriens first and then of the Diocese of Egypt, until the Muslim conquest of Egypt in the 640s.

Some ancient episcopal sees of the province are included in the Catholic Church's list of titular sees.[2]
