English term or phrase: Back matter

Explanation: In English, the term "Back matter" is used to collectively talk about everything that comes after the main bodyvof a book (similar for front matter). However, I cannot find a corresponding term in Swedish so I am wondering if there exist any? In swedish we, as far as I know, usually just say "glossary", "appendix", etc.

But if there aren't any good terms, what would be a suitable translation? Could one simply say "Eftermaterial"?
