An important group of fungal insect parasites is the Laboulbeniales (Ascomycota). These are microscopic in size and live attached to the cuticle of their arthropod hosts. Rickiawasmannii is a common European species limited to the ant genus Myrmica (Hymenoptera, Formicidae). We present new records of R.wasmannii in the Netherlands on three host species: Myrmicaruginodis, M.sabuleti, and M.scabrinodis. Our data show a mass infection of M.sabuleti by R.wasmannii. The average parasite prevalence is 38% (n = 3,876). The prevalence was much lower on the other Myrmica species. So far, R.wasmannii infections have been found only on Myrmica species in the rubra-group and the scabrinodis-group. We provide possible explanations for this observation. To date, Rickiawasmannii is known on nine Myrmica species in sixteen European countries; an overview is included in tabulated form.
