The present catalogue completes (as the second of the two parts) data for the millipede collection of Czech arachnologist Franti\šek Miller (1902\–1983), housed in the National Museum in Prague. This second part of the catalogue brings information on a total of 341 specimens belonging to 34 millipede species; these specimens were previously housed at Charles University in Prague, and later moved to the National Museum. The material was collected during 1927\–1950 in the territory of modern-day Czechia and Slovakia. Chelogona carpathicum, Polydesmus tatranus and Trachysphaera acutula are species of special importance for Slovak faunistics, due to their endemic occurrence. Glomeris klugii is the first record for Slovakia. For Leptoiulus noricus and Polydesmus inconstans, these are chronologically the oldest records from the territory of Slovakia.

The present catalogue lists data from a total of 95 specimens from 22 species of the millipede collection by the Czech scientist Bohumil N{\v e}mec (1873\–1966) housed in the National Museum in Prague. The material was collected at the turn of the 19th and 20th century in the modern-day Czechia and contains syntypes of Craspedosoma rawlinsii simplex N{\v e}mec, 1896 [= Craspedosoma rawlinsii rawlinsii Leach, 1814, syn. nov.] and Julus (Leucojulus) coerulans N{\v e}mec, 1896 [= Kryphioiulus occultus (Koch, 1847)]. The problematic of spelling the name rawlinsii turned to be much complicated than previously thought. Thus, only the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature will have to solve it. Until then, the prevailing usage of rawlinsii is to be maintained.

Since the year 2003, six millipede species new for the Czech Republic were announced. All of them were discovered in small populations mostly in natural habitats. They can be divided into two groups. One is represented by rare, relict and stenoecic species (Hungarosoma bokori, Hylebainosoma tatranum and Melogona transsylvanica). The other group is represented by species exhibiting a closer relationship to subterranean habitats in the Czech Republic (Brachychaeteuma bradeae, Macrosternodesmus palicola and Geoglomeris subterranea); their presence in the Czech Republic was revealed by modified pitfall traps used for collecting of deep-living invertebrates and by combination of several methods used during the research in caves. All six species are listed in the Red List of Threatened Invertebrates in the Czech Republic.
