- 1885 – July 27, 1919), born Nychypir Servetnyk (Ukrainian: ??????? ?????????) in a small village of Zastavlia (now in the Nova Ushytsia Raion, Ukraine), was a paramilitary leader noted for numerous switching of sides during the civil war in Ukraine.
- He was commonly known as "Otaman Grigoriev", as "Matviy Hryhoriyiv", "Matvey Grigoriev", or "Mykola Grigoriev". He is sometimes misrepresented as the Otaman of the "Green Army".
- His association with the term "Green Army" is due to collaboration with the army of Otaman Zeleny (Green in Russian and Ukrainian) which fought against the UNR Directory, Bolsheviks, and Denikin's Army.
- Although he cooperated with Zeleny, this was marginal.
