Seven species of the genus Pantolyta Foerster are found to occur in Russia. One species, P. ele- gans sp. nov. from Russia (Kunashir I.) and Japan (Hokkaido I.), is described as new for science. Eight known species of Pantolyta are reviewed and keyed. Colour illustrations are provided to all species. Резюме. Установлено, что семь видов рода Pantolyta Foerster обитают в России. Один вид – P. ele- gans sp. nov. из России (о. Кунашир) и Японии (о. Хоккайдо) – описан как новый. Даны обзор и определительный ключ для восьми известных видов Pantolyta.
