Acts 1:15-26 says specifically that Judas Iscariot's space was not occupied, but instead that a new slot was added to bring the number back to twelve.
In the days following, Peter proposed that the assembled disciples, who numbered about 120, nominate two men to replace Judas. They chose Joseph called Barsabas (whose surname was Justus) and Matthias. votes were casted to see who would be 'the thirteenth,' so to speak, electing Matthias.
