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.    Rickia   wasmannii    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:    Myrmica   ruginodis   ,    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 therubra   -group and thescabrinodis   -group. We provide possible explanations for this observation. To date,    Rickia   wasmannii    is known on nine    Myrmica    species in sixteen European countries; an overview is included in tabulated form.
