  Recent results on meson spectroscopy from lattice QCD are reviewed. The
emphasis is on interesting states near thresholds like $Z_c^+(3900)$, $X(3872)$
and $D_{s0}^*(2317)$. Another focus is on the meson resonances in light,
strange and charm sector, where the resonance masses as well as the strong
decay widths are extracted from the lattice.
