ABSTRACT. A list of bee species not recorded in the recently published Catalogue of Hymenoptera of Russia for the European North and North-West of Russia is given. In addition to species previously reported in various publications, the present list also includes data from the digitized collections of the Zoological Museum of the University of Helsinki and data from the GBIF web portal for this region. Information on new records of bees, mainly from Karelia, has also been published. A total of 76 species have been added to the Catalogue of bees of the European North of Russia: 14 species of Colletidae, 19 species of Andrenidae, eight species of Halictidae, four species of Melittidae, 28 species of Megachilidae, and three species of Apidae. 74 species were omitted from the Catalogue and two species were added for the region based on original data from Karelia. 46 species have been added to the list of species recorded for the North-West (NW): four species of Colletidae, one species of Andrenidae, one species of Halictidae, 38 species of Megachilidae and two species of Apidae. Hylaeus pfankuchi (Alfken, 1919) is newly recorded for the European part of Russia and H. rinki (Gorski, 1852) and Osmia bicornis (Linnaeus, 1758) are newly recorded for Karelia.
