During 1998\–2003, a detailed faunistic zoological research has been performed in the freshly abandoned parts of the bottom of the limestone quarry \"Velkolom {\v C}ertovy schody - z\ápad\". The main aim of the study is to monitore the development of zoocenoses under the conditions of the carry reclamation activities. The systematic monitoring study has been started in 1999, and as the model groups were selected mammals (Mammalia), birds (Aves), reptiles (Reptilia), amphibians (Amphibia), molluscs (Mollusca) and spiders (Arachnida), occasionally also phytophagous beetles (Chrosomelidae, Curculionidae, Bruchidae) and diplopods (Diplopoda) have been collected and determined.

Additionally, 121 species of phytophagous beetles were found, they mostly represent also the common eurytopic species having no specific demands on the habitat quality. Besides, 4 species of the diplopods has been found in the locality under study.

Based on the latest review of the anthropochore millipede fauna of Asian Russia, 9 species from 7 genera, 5 families and two orders of Diplopoda are known to occur there as anthropochore introductions [Nefediev et al., 2014]. The present record of the polydesmid millipede, Polydesmus inconstans Latzel, 1884, which is new to the millipede fauna of the Asian part of Russia, increases the number of invasive diplopod species in the territory to ten.

Hungarosoma bokori Verhoeff, 1928 is a millipede species which was originally classified solely on the basis of a female specimen. Subsequently, a long history of field searching for and surmising about the systematic position of this small, enigmatic species followed. In April 2013, 85 years after its first description, a series of nine specimens were sampled in the type locality, the Abaliget Cave, in southern Hungary. An adult male was collected for the first time, along with females and juveniles. Descriptions of the gonopods and the female vulvae, both important for considerations of the systematic position of the species, are presented for the first time. Revision and re-designation of the type material was made. The cryptic life of the species is connected with its activity in winter, and its known fragmented distribution corresponds with its presence in undisturbed microhabitats having a specific microclimate, often in the soil at cave entrances.
Molecular methods showed a positive detection of the intracellular prokaryotic parasite Wolbachia in H. bokori, reflecting its highly probable parthenogenetic character in the main part of its known area of occurrence. This is the first demonstration of Wolbachia in a millipede.
The legitimacy of the family Hungarosomatidae Ceuca, 1974, as a separate taxon was analysed using morphological and molecular approaches. Results of both methods confirmed the existence of a distinct phyletic line. DNA barcoding has shown its closest position to Attemsiidae Verhoeff, 1899, or Neoatractosomatidae Verhoeff, 1901. Based on records from Austria, the Czech Republic, Hungary and Slovakia, the residual circum-pannonic distribution that the whole genus (family) probably represents is proposed.

Data about the millipedes (Diplopoda) in the Brdy Protected Landscape Area (Central Bohemia, the Czech Republic) are summarized for the first time in this contribution. A substantial part of the analysed material was obtained during 2016 and 2017, complemented by several findings from the previous time. Millipedes were sampled at 31 sites in different forest localities. The open sites, such as grasslands, heaths, rocky outcrops and open stony debris were also partly investigated. In total 35 millipede species were recorded using the combination of individual sampling, pitfall trapping and litter sieving with subsequent heat extraction of invertebrates. The highest diversity of millipede assemblages were found in well preserved ravines and mixed beech forest stands (localities Klobou{\v c}ek and Valdek) and also in highly diversified synantropic sites (Borovno). The highest frequency of occurrence was recorded for the millipede species Polydesmus complanatus, Mycogona germanica, Glomeris connexa and Leptoiulus noricus. The occurrence of Pachypodoiulus eurypus, Glomeris klugii, Haasea flavescens and Haploporatia eremita underline natural character of a number of localities within this protected area and suggest geographical consequences of given territory with neighbouring regions of Central Europe.

Data about the millipedes (Diplopoda) in the K{\v r}ivokl\átsko Protected Landscape Area and Biosphere Reserve (Czech Republic) are summarised in the article. In 1994\–2007, millipedes were studied at 36 sites there using the combination of three methods; individual sampling of invertebrates, pitfall trapping and soil sampling with subsequent heat extraction of animals. In total, 44 millipede species were recorded. The most frequent were the common European or Central European millipedes Megaphyllum projectum, Polydesmus complanatus, Ochogona caroli, Mycogona germanica, Glomeris connexa and Unciger foetidus. Beside this, some rare species, e.g. Listrocheiritium septentrionale, Melogona transsylvanica (the first record for the Czech Republic), Pachypodoiulus eurypus and Trachysphaera costata, together with frequent occurrence of high numbers of species per site confirmed well-preserved natural habitats within the given protected area. The highest per site numbers of species were found in the T\ý{\v r}ov National Nature Reserve (28 species) and the V{\r u}znice National Nature Reserve (26 species). Concerning the assemblages of millipedes, according to contemporary knowledge, the K{\v r}ivokl\átsko PLA and BR seems to be the richest area in the Czech Republic and probably one of the richest areas also in the whole Central Europe.

There are 35 species of millipedes currently known in the Protected Landscape Area Bohemian Karst. Very rich communities of millipedes were found in biotopes Na Mramoru in Svat\ý Jan pod Skalou in National Nature Reserve Karl\štejn, in C\ísa{\v r}sk\á rokle, a part of National Nature Reserve Koda and in {\v C}ern\á rokle, within National Nature Monument Koso{\v r}. The rarest species of millipedes are:\ Trachysphaera costata,\ Mastigophorophyllon saxonicum,\ Cylindroiulus luridus\ and\ Polydesmus testaceus. The typical species of millipedes in Bohemian Karst are for example\ Glomeris hexasticha,\ Haploporatia eremita,\ Ophyiulus pilosus and\ Ommatoiulus sabulosus. In the historical context 28 species of millipedes including 4 species with a probable misidentification were known in the area of Bohemian Karst before 1965.
Proposed Czech zoological names for millipedes are useful for popularizing of science and education.

The first reviews of millipedes in Bohemia and Moravia were published by Rosick\ý (1786) and Vali\š (1904),\ respectively. Rosick\ý (1876) presented 19 species from Bohemia and Vali\š (1904) described 28 species from Moravia.\ Lang (1954) published the survey of 52 species of Czech millipedes in his monograph. Guli{\v c}ka (1985) considered about\ a high probability of misidentification of the basis for several species in Lang\&$\#$39;s monograph. Unfortunately, Lang\&$\#$39;s\ collections were destroyed after his death in 1972. Guli{\v c}ka (1985) reviewed in his survey 64 species for the Czech\ Republic. lt is possible that several species of millipedes could be concealed among several very similar species. Natural\ spreading as well as introduction of millipedes species caused by human activities must be taken in consideration. The\ current list of millipedes can be still larger due to the continuing intense faunistic research in our country.

In 1997\–2005, millipede fauna was studied in the Czech Republic\&$\#$39;s capital, Prague. In Prague there are natural, semi-natural and man-made (artificial) habitats. Special attention was paid to forests, a forest steppe, a rock steppe, rock debris, river surface, parks, greenhouses, a garden centre, game parks, seedbeds and city greenery. At present, 51 species of millipedes occur there. Therefore, the Czech Republic\&$\#$39;s capital is the area with the highest number of millipedes in the country. For example, the K{\v r}ivokl\átsko PLA and BR, a comparable natural area rich in millipede species currently harbours 44 species of millipedes. A total number of millipede species in the Czech Republic is 76. Thus, 67\% of millipede species that were found in the Czech Republic inhabit Prague. During the research, 20 millipedes species new for Prague area were found, particularly those prefering man-made habitats. The species richness of introduced millipedes species in Prague is the highest among all of the areas having been studied in this respect in the Czech Republic. The millipede species rich site in Prague is the Zoological Garden in Troja, harbouring 26 species. The most common millipede species in Prague include Cylindroiulus caeruleocinctus, Ophyiulus pilosus, Julus scandinavius, Choneiulus palmatus, Blaniulus guttulatus and Cylindroiulus britannicus. On the other hand, the rare relic species that has been found in Prague are: Trachysphaera costata, Mastigophorophyllon saxonicum, Haploporatia eremita, Cylindroiulus luridus, Cylindroiulus arborum and Polydesmus germanicus. For the Czech Republic, rare synantropis species found in Prague are: Cylindroiulus vulnerarius, Cylindroiulus punctatus and Amphitomeus attemsi. The East European species Polyzonium germanicum and Rossiulus vilnensis reach its regional distribution limit in Prague. The four millipede species occurring in Prague, namely Trachysphaera costata, Cylindroiulus luridus, Polydesmus germanicus and Rossiulus vilnensis are included in the Red List of threatened invertebrate species in the Czech Republic.

The territory of the Prague Zoological Garden provides millipedes (Diplopoda) with many suitable habitats. In various habitat types, mainly influenced by humans, 23 species were found. Some of them are rare in the Czech Republic. One millipede species has been found there alone in the Czech Republic as a whole. The population decline of the invertebrates and their recovery after the catastrophic floods in
August 2002 are assessed in the article.

The Charles University Botanical Garden, located in the very centre of Prague, is a specific ecosystem with a diverse invertebcate community. In 2000, a community of millipedes (Diplopoda) was studied by the author. In total, he found 14 species of this invertebrate species, one of them (Allajulus nitidus) being new to Bohemia and two of them (Cylindroiulus truncorum and C. vulnerarius) being new to the entire Czech Republic.

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.

Altogether 16 species of millipedes found during arachnological excursions on Central Moravia organized by the Czech Arachnological Society in late spring 2018 are listed. Julus scanicus belongs to the Red List of Threatened species of the Czech Republic (NT \– near threatened). The highest number of millipede species was collected in the Doubrava Nature Reserve. Based on our research and summary of published records, 27 millipede species were reported from the Litovelsk\é Pomorav\í PLA.

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 2000, 14 millipede species new to our territory have been reported. They can be divided into three ecological groups: 1) synanthrope and hemisynanthrope species; 2) rare, relict and stenoecious species; 3) subterranean species. Of these, 9 species are listed in the Red List of Threatened Invertebrates in the Czech Republic. There are thus 78 millipede species living in our country.

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.

Important information about the Czech millipedes, namely about their distribution, new records and diagnostic characters, are scattered among many individual scientific papers. Recently published articles are often available on the Internet, however, older papers must be searched in libraries. The last complex monograph about the Czech millipedes was published more than 60 years ago. Current knowledge of their distribution as well as increasing number of millipede species recorded in the Czech Republic call for a new monograph. This atlas contains colour images, diagnostic characters and notes on ecology and distribution of all 77 millipede species actually known from the Czech Republic. Determination key, including figures of main diagnostic characters, enable the readers to try to identify Czech millipede species. Characterization of each of the six millipede orders is accompanied by a plate composed of pictures made by the scanning electron microscope. Description of each species is accompanied by images of the animals, information about their typical biotopes and a distribution map (based on records from 1960\–2016). Distribution of individual species in the Czech Republic is supplemented by their occurrence in Europe based on information from the Fauna Europaea database. Despite dealing with recent animals, the book contains also a chapter about paleontological records of myriapods, namely those known from our territory, from the carboniferous black-coal basin in N\ý{\v r}any by Plze{\v n}. Historical overview presents important scientists who contributed to the knowledge of the millipedes in the Czech Republic. The presented atlas is a popularising book intended for a large public, nature enthusiasts, conservationist, students as well as children. It does not contain all scientific aspects of diplopodology. Instead, it combines basic facts from the most important areas of a millipede life. Thus, this book is the first such structured manual published in the Czech Republic.
