Abstract The specificity of the specialisation of Phengaris Doherty, 1891 caterpillars to their host ants is still not fully understood. In this report, we summarize all available records of Phengaris in ant nests from the Czech Republic. Phengaris alcon (Denis & Schiffermüller, 1775) was found exclusively in nests of Myrmica scabrinodis Nylander, 1846 at four sites, and one Phengaris nausithous (Bergsträsser, 1779) caterpillar was found in a nest of Myrmica scabrinodis . According to published records, Phengaris nausithous may use Myrmica scabrinodis at the edges of its range but should be adapted exclusively to Myrmica rubra (Linnaeus, 1758) in the centre of its range. No records of Phengaris arion (Linnaeus, 1758), Phengaris teleius (Bergsträsser, 1779) and Phengaris alcon populations feeding on Gentiana cruciata ( Gentianaceae ) (“ Phengaris rebeli ”) are available from the Czech Republic.
