Ar begs (in Russian chronicles "Арские князья") was a formation of Noqrat Tatars' nobility, served to Muscovy in 16th–17th century. In 14th–15th centuries they were rulers of semi-independent duchy in the middle Cheptsa, nowadays Udmurtia. At the "first time," their lands were under Kazan Khanate's and "later under Russian influence." Begs also participated in wars for Udmurtia between Kazan and Muscovy.

Several Russian noble families descended from the Ar begs include the Devetyarov, Kasimov, Yaushev and others.
