    AnnotationDermacentor reticulatus ticks were collected by flagging at 46 localities at south-east part of the Czech Republic. North-west distribution limits of D. reticulatus were defined in this area for the first time. Detailed prediction map of probabilities of D. reticulatus occurrence was obtained using GIS analysis. Spatial model delimited a south-north gradient in probability across the studied area. The highest abundances of D. reticulatus were found in flooded areas at lower streams. Females prevailed in samples over males, while larvae and nymphs of this species were not detected by flagging. Although D. reticulatus range expansion probably did not reach such a degree as reported in other countries, these ticks became very abundant in some parts of studied area. Since spreading of vector-borne diseases became a problem in Europe, the knowledge of their exact recent geographic ranges is important for future modelling of their shift predictability.
