E-mail: ebudrys@ekoi.lt Introduction The bees (Apidae) belong to the well-studied insect groups of the fauna of Lithuania due to the recent studies of Virgilijus Monseviius. He has summarised the available published data on this important insect group coming from Lithuania and adjacent territories and has collected multiple new species (Monseviius, 1995). After his latest supplement (Monseviius, 2004), the bee fauna of the country included 335 species. The objective of this contribution is supplementing of the national check-list of bees by four recently recorded species. Material and Methods The bees were collected by the author using entomological net. The specimens are preserved in the collection of the Institute of Ecology of Vilnius University.
