Cataglyphis cretica (Forel, 1910) is raised to species rank and redescribed. The following synonymies are proposed: Lepisiota nigra (Dalla Torre, 1893) = Lepisiota splendens Karavaiev, 1912 syn. nov.; Camponotus boghossiani Forel, 1911 = Camponotus boghossiani stenoticus Emery, 1915 syn. nov.; Camponotus oertzeni Forel, 1889 = Camponotus andrius Dalla Torre, 1893 syn. nov., = Campnotus oertzeni kappariensis Dalla Torre, 1893 syn. nov. Gynes of Aphaenogaster aktaci Kiran & Tezcan, 2008, Temnothorax angustifrons Csősz, Heinze & Mikó, 2015, Temnothorax dessyi (Menozzi, 1936), Temnothorax kemali (Santschi, 1934), Temnothorax smyrnensis (Forel, 1911) and Temnothorax solerii (Menozzi, 1936) are described for the first time. Aphaenogaster aktaci Kiran & Tezcan, 2008 and Temnothorax kemali (Santschi, 1934) are new to Europe and Greece. New records for 10 species and an updated checklist of 315 species or morphospecies occurring in Greece is given.
