Specimens examined. Six females, RUSSIA, Tyumen Province, vicinity of lake Kuchak, 57°21’N, 66°03’E, 27 April 2018, O. Joharchi coll., in the nest of F. rufa View in CoL L. ( Hymenoptera View in CoL : Formicidae View in CoL ); three females, Tyumen Province, vicinity of Uspenka, 57°04’N, 65°04’E, 21 May 2018, O. Joharchi coll., in the nest of F. fusca View in CoL L.

Notes. Holostaspis isotricha was described from Brno, Czech Republic ( Kolenati, 1858) where it was found from nests of Formica rufa L. ( Hymenoptera : Formicidae ). Vitzthum (1929) synonymised H. isotricha and H. oophila ( Wasmann, 1897) , but did not provide any explanation for that decision, and did not give details of the specimens he examined. We followed here Evans & Till (1966), and consider them as separate species. Our concept of the species is based on that of Evans & Till (1966), and our specimens agree completely with Evans & Till (1966, Fig. 36 View FIGURE 35–37 ) and Babaeian et al. (2019, Figs 33–43 View FIGURES 26–34 View FIGURE 35–37 View FIGURES 38–42 View FIGURES 43–49 ). This species very widely distributed in Europe and Russia in ants’ nests ( Evans & Till, 1966; Bregetova, 1977; Karg, 1982; Babaeian et al., 2019), and it is now recorded in Western Siberia for the first time, from the same host. The species is easily recognised by thick, long dorsal setae, almost all setae with 2–4 minute barbs distally and reaching base of next posterior setae ( Fig. 38 View FIGURES 38–42 ), epistome smooth ( Fig. 41 View FIGURES 38–42 ), anal shield with anterolateral extension, post-anal seta long and thick ( Fig. 39 View FIGURES 38–42 ), ad1 on femur I-IV well thickened and fixed digit of chelicera with a small tooth distaly and movable digit with terminal hook ( Fig. 42 View FIGURES 38–42 ).
