The de Haas-van Alphen effect of the semimetallic lanthanum pnictides LaSb and LaBi, which have attracted interest as a proper reference material for a study of anomalous physical properties observed in the Ce pnictides, is explained by the Fermi surface which is calculated by a relativistic APW method with the local-density approximation. The Fermi surface of both pnictides consists of two small hole sheets centred at \(\) and three equivalent electron pockets centred at X. Calculated extremal cross-sectional area and cyclotron mass agree reasonably well with experimental results.
