Only 4 native species of oaks were known in Czechoslovakia until 1974, namely Quercus cerris, Quercus petraea, Quercus pubescens and Quercus robur. In that year, Magic published a paper in which he quoted another 5 oak species from Slovakia. During my study in the Czech Republic, I have found, in addition to the above mentioned species, Quercus dalechampii, Quercus polycarpa, Quercus virgiliana and very rarely Quercus frainetto but not Quercus pedunculiflora. The newly discovered oak species are concentrated particularly in southern and southwestern Moravia.
