Abstract
This paper reports on three species of the genus Holostaspis (Laelapidae) associated with ants in Russia: Holostaspis ambigua Babaeian, Mašán and Halliday were collected from nest of Formica polyctena Förster (Formicidae), Holostaspis intermedia Joharchi n. sp. were collected from nest of Formica exsecta Nylander (Formicidae) and Holostaspis macrodactyla Joharchi n. sp. were collected from nest of Formica gagatoides Ruzsky (Formicidae). Two new species are described and illustrated from adults. In addition, an identification key to all known Russian species of the genus is presented.
