Abstract
One new genus and three new species of Tardigrada are described. Eremobiotus ovezovae gen.n. and sp.n. is characterized by the presence of six peribuccal papulae and six peribuccal lobes and modified hind leg claws. Isohypsibius irregibilis sp.n. is easily distinguished from all the other species of the genus by the conformation of its internal claws. Ampbibolus markevichi sp.n. is similar to A. mabunkai; however, it can be distinguished by peculiarities shown by adult stages and eggs.Keywords
