Nikolai Aleksandrovich Lokhvitsky (in Russian: Никола́й Алекса́ндрович Ло́хвицкий) was a General in the Russian Expeditionary Force in France (REF).
Lokhvitsky took command of the First brigade of the REF leaving Moscow on 2 February 1916. They travelled by train across Siberia to the port of Dal'ny. Here they sailed on four ships via the Suez Canal to Marseilles, arriving in April 1916. They were billeted at the training camp at Mailly-le-Grand, Champaigne. When they were joined by the 3rd brigade in September 1916, they were merged into a Division at Mourmelon-le-Grand also in Champaigne.
