Abstract

Greek spiders in the historical collection of the National Museum of the Czech Republic in Prague (NMPC) were mainly collected during expeditions organized by the NMPC before World War II. Some younger specimens are present in collections of the Czech arachnologists František Miller and Jan Buchar. The material was collected at 23 localities and includes 247 identifiable specimens from 74 species. Spiders were identified (or revised) according to current arachnological knowledge and thereafter databased. Among them, Leviellus stroemi (Thorell, 1870) is recorded for the first time from Greece.
