can say that the fullest version of Schütt's book is the 3rd (2001) edition
with additions of many newer taxa etc. But actually following
Welter-Schultes Bibliography would be much more helpful. I dont think that
the Turkish fauna fully resemble to Greek fauna (if you exclude Eastern
Aegaean islands, Rhodes etc which is quite identical to Turkish mainland).
Greek mainland resembles more to that of C Europe and rest of Balkans if you
speak particulary about freshwater members.
Furthermore i can roughly divide some regions show remarkable pecularities:
Crete
Eastern Aegaean Islands
Epirus
Sporades
Greek mainland eastwards (Phtiosis, Attica, Euboea)
NE Greece (Thasos, Samothraki, Thracia, Macedonia)
Kerkyria (there is a commoner name for this island i cant remember for now)

From these E.A. islands and NE Greece share a lot of elements with W and NW
Anatolia, although many genera (Albinaria, Idyla-Clausiliidae,
Graecoanatolia RADOMAN-Hydrobiidae s.l. etc) are shared, and show the
connection occurred before Aegaean sea was opened.
