Microdispus minutus Sevastianov, 1981, p. 28, fig. 5.

Caesarodispus minutus : Khaustov 2008: 390.

Material examined.

Eleven females, Russia: Tyumen Province, Tyumen region, vicinity of settlement Narimanovo, 57°21'56"N, 65°08'21"E, in the nest of ants Lasius flavus (Fabricius), 30 July 2014, coll. V.A. Stolbov.

This species was described from Ukraine from ants Tetramorium caespitum L. ( Sevastianov 1981). Khaustov (2009) redescribed it based on type material. It was also recorded from Iran from Temnothorax sp. ( Loghmani et al 2014). This is a new record for the fauna of Russia.
