The study of two species placed in Arctella Holm, 1945, A. lapponica Holm, 1945, and A. subnivalis Ovtchinnikov, 1989, revealed that the latter species belongs to the genus Tricholathys. A new combination is suggested: Tricholathys subnivalis (Ovtchinnikov, 1989) comb. n. The record of Arctella subnivalis from the Northern Caucasus was found to be based on a misidentification and refers to Tricholathys ovtchinnikovi sp. n. All three species are illustrated and described. A new diagnosis is provided for Arctella. Two previously unknown characters were found in the male palp of Arctella and Tricholathys: a large cavity on the mesal side of the tibial apophysis, and a digitiform or spur-like outgrowth on the conductor. http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:C118569F-2C5C-4204-A1BC-8595B966A914.
