Sumario:A review of the Greek members of the Temnothoraxanodontoides species-group revealed three species new to science: Temnothoraxeuboeaesp. nov. (Sterea Ellas, Euboea Island), Temnothoraxarkasisp. nov. (Peloponnese, Arcadia) and Temnothoraxparnonensissp. nov. (Peloponnese, Arcadia and Lakonia). The diagnoses of Temnothoraxikarosi Salata, Borowiec & Trichas, 2018 and T.anodontoides (Dlussky & Zabelin, 1985) are updated based of the new discoveries. Additionally, presence of the latter species in Greece is discussed and its distribution range revised. All members of the anodontoides species-group are associated with alpine and rocky habitats such as pastures and thermophilous forests. A dichotomous key to the anodontoides species-group from Greece is given.
