Apulia and Calabria (Latin: Apulia et Calabria) was a Late Roman province in the ancient territories of Apulia and Calabria (both included in the modern Apulia region, in southern Italy). Its capital was Canusium (modern Canosa di Puglia).

As found in the Notitia Dignitatum. Provincial administration reformed and dioceses established by Diocletian, c. 293. Permanent praetorian prefectures established after the death of Constantine I. Empire permanently partitioned after 395. Exarchates of Ravenna and Africa established after 584.
