Abstract
In this article the author presents those fables occurring in Archaic, Classical, and Hellenistic Greek literature which can be added to F. R. Adrados' Inventario y documentación de la fábula greco-latina. These fables can be found in a great variety of other literary genres, viz. in the works of epic and lyric poets, tragedians and comedians, satyric playwrights and epigrammatists, rhetoricians, orators, historiographers, and philosophers. All of the passages that will be discussed are of intrinsic importance as they predate the versions extant in the fable collections. Moreover, many of the supplementary references given below are more or less significant variations on well-known fable themes, whereas others are actually unique in the ancient fable corpus.
