Holaspis is a genus of equatorial african lacertids in the family Lacertidae.
The New Latin word "Holaspis" is derived from the Greek words "aspis", ἀσπίς (= a buckler, or round shield) and "holos", ὅλος, ὅλως (= whole, all, complete). It refers to the head scalation with frontoparietal and occipital scales all fused.
