Stolbovoy Island (Russian: Столбовой остров) is a long and narrow island of the Sakha Republic off the southwest side of the New Siberian Islands in the eastern part of the Laptev Sea. It is located 184 kilometres (114 mi) away from the Siberian coast and 100 kilometres (62 mi) southwest of Kotelny Island, being thus quite detached from the New Siberian island group. It belongs to the Lyakhovsky Islands subgroup.
