Seventy seven species of ants have been collected in Epirus (Northwestern Greece) in 2016, Messor cf. clivorum is new to Greece, 46 species are recorded from this region for the first time. At the moment 89 morphospecies are known from Epirus, 18 are identified only to complexes of cryptic taxa and their species status will be determined after future revisions.

A complete list of 107 ant species (including morphospecies not attributed to any known taxon) recorded from Thessaly, Greece, is presented. New records from 40 sampling localities explored during two field trips in 2012 and 2017, and also from literature data are included. Temnothorax sordidulus (M\ÜLLER, 1923) and Temnothorax tauricus (RUZSKY, 1902) are new to Greece; 38 species were recorded from Thessaly for the first time.

Fifty and six ant species are recorded from the Samos Island (North Aegean) including seven not attributed to any formally described taxon. Aphaenogaster subcostata Viehmeyer, 1922, Temnothorax curtisetosus Salata \& Borowiec, 2015 and Temnothorax smyrnenis (Forel, 1911) are new to Greece and Europe; Crematogaster erectepilosa Salata \& Borowiec, 2015, Ponera coarctata (Latreill e, 1802), Temnothorax angustifrons Cs\ösz, Heinze \& Mik\ó, 2015 and Tetramorium hippocratis Agosti \& Collingwood, 1987 are new to the East Aegean Islands. Leptothorax bulgaricus ssp. smyrnenis Forel, 1911 is raised to the species rank as Temnothorax smyrnenis (Forel, 1911) new status.

Forty five ant species were recorded from the Zakynthos Island (Ionian Islands)in 2018, including seven not attributed to any formally described taxon. A comparison of ant fauna of Zakynthos with ant fauna of Samos islands is presented. Both islands have similar surface area (405.6 versus 476.4 km2) and are placed almost on the same latitude (37\°) but represent the most western and the most eastern fauna complexes in Greece; 78 species and morphospecies were recorded from both islands but only 23 species are common.
