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.

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 the period 1999\–2014, occurrence and diversity of millipedes was investigated at 90 localities in the Jizersk\é hory Mts (most of them being covered by the Jizersk\é hory Protected Landscape Area), Fr\ýdlantsk\á pahorkatina Hills, Je\št{\v e}dsk\ý h{\v r}bet Ridge and Libereck\á kotlina Basin. The material was collected using a combination of three methods: individual sampling, pitfall trapping and sifting of leaf litter. In total 41 millipede species were found, making up 53\% of the millipede fauna recently known in the Czech Republic. In general, the Jizersk\é hory Mts together with the adjacent areas of the Fr\ýdlantsk\á pahorkatina Hills, Je\št{\v e}dsk\ý h{\v r}bet Ridge and Libereck\á kotlina Basin rank among the richest areas in millipede diversity in the Czech Republic. The most frequent species were the common millipedes Leptoiulus trilobatus, Julus scandinavius, Haasea germanica, Unciger foetidus, Mycogona germanica, Proteroiulus fuscus, Nemasoma varicorne and Polydesmus complanatus. The rare species Trachysphaera costata, Melogona gallica and Haploporatia eremita were recorded. The Botanical Garden in Liberec hosts the rare synanhropic species Cylindroiulus vulnerarius, otherwise known in the Czech Republic from Prague only. The highest numbers of millipede species per site were found in natural habitats of Zlat\á Ole\šnice (14) and the K{\v r}\í{\v z}ov\ý vrch Hill near Fr\ýdlant (12). The same number (12 species) was recorded in the city of Liberec and in the abandoned quarry in the V\ápenn\ý vrch Hill near Raspenava. In addition, two synanthropic species, Oxidus gracilis (tree nursery in Nov\é M{\v e}sto pod Smrkem) and Cylindroiulus caeruleocinctus (city gardens in Fr\ýdlant, L\ázn{\v e} Libverda), were recorded. The wettest localities (peat bogs of Nov\á louka and Na {\v C}ihadle) and the sites damaged by industrial emissions ({\v C}ern\á hora Mt.) were free of millipedes.

In this paper are summarized new data about the millipede fauna (Myriapoda, Diplopoda) in the Lower Pos\ázav\í region (Central Bohemia, Czech Republic). In total 1,605 specimens of millipedes belonging to 42 species were collected here during the years 1971\–2014. Rare millipedes found here are represented by Trachysphaera costata, Listrocheiritium septentrionale, Cylindroiulus luridus and Pachypodoiulus eurypus. On the contrary, following species can be classified as very common: Proteroiulus fuscus, Glomeris hexasticha, Glomeris pustulata, Choneiulus palmatus and Ophiulus pilosus. Fundamental informations about single species are presented.

There are 72 species and 7 subspecies of Diplopoda currently known from the Czech Republic. Seven of these species are recorded for the first time from the Czech Republic based on the author\&$\#$39;s own field studies and collections: Haplogona oculodistincta (Verhoeff, 1893), Craspedosoma alemannicum Verhoeff, 1910, Melogona gallica (Latzel, 1884), Melogona broelemanni (Verhoeff, 1897), Cylindroiulus parisiorum (Broelemann et Verhoeff, 1896), Rossiulus vilnensis (Jawlowski, 1925) and Polydesmus angustus Latzel, 1884.

At this work there are given 34 species of millipeds that were found in the district Bene\šov u Prahy in the area Doln\í Pos\ázav\í and in the nearest surroundings. From these 34 species there are 14 ones shown on the picture-tables n. l\–V. ln this survey there are included the foundlings given by Lang (1953\–1967) and my own collections (1970\–1973).
The species Haploporatia eremita (Verhoeff) was found for the first time for {\v C}SR. It is the infiltrating Alpine form. Other localities in {\v C}SSR \– Mal\é Karpaty (1956) \– (Guli{\v c}ka). The species Microchordeuma voigti (Verhoeff) is the new species for the Czech areas. Other localities \– {\v C}esk\á T{\v r}ebov\á (1955) \– (Folkmanov\á). The species Polydesmus coriaceus (Porat) var. inconstans (Attems) has in T\ýnec n. S. the Southern limit of its extension in {\v C}SR. Other localities \– Praha (1953, 1968), Kyje u Prahy (1957), Doln\í M{\v e}cholupy (1968) \– (Lang, Homol\á{\v c}, Kocourek).
