我认为最好的选择是遍历所有pytz时区，并检查哪个匹配本地时区，每个pytz时区对象都包含有关utcoffset和tzname的信息，例如CDT，EST，可以从time.timezone/altzone和获取有关本地时间的相同信息time.tzname，我认为这是足以正确匹配pytz数据库中的本地时区，例如

import time
import pytz
import datetime

local_names = []
if time.daylight:
    local_offset = time.altzone
    localtz = time.tzname[1]
else:
    local_offset = time.timezone
    localtz = time.tzname[0]

local_offset = datetime.timedelta(seconds=-local_offset)

for name in pytz.all_timezones:
    timezone = pytz.timezone(name)
    if not hasattr(timezone, '_tzinfos'):
        continue#skip, if some timezone doesn't have info
    # go thru tzinfo and see if short name like EDT and offset matches
    for (utcoffset, daylight, tzname), _ in timezone._tzinfos.iteritems():
        if utcoffset == local_offset and tzname == localtz:
            local_names.append(name)

print local_names

在生产中，您可以预先创建这样的映射并保存它，而不必总是进行迭代。

更改时区后测试脚本：

$ export TZ=’Australia/Sydney’
$ python get_tz_names.py
