For their expansion he helped particularly by collections made in the Eastern Alps. From 1933 Holdhaus was director of the Zoological Department.

Holdhaus worked in the fields of geology, taxonomy, biogeography and Muesologie, but was especially Zoogeograph. He explored the Mediterranean countries, the European high mountains (especially the Alps and the Carpathians ), which caused by the ice ages of the Pleistocene distribution patterns of European flora, fauna continental and oceanic islands as well as the spread of the insects on earth.
