Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Zizina emelina is one of the most endangered butterfly species listed in the Red Data Book published by the Ministry of the Environment, Japan, due to loss of its principal food plant and habitat. We developed 15 microsatellite loci and estimated the genetic diversity of this species using 213 individuals from 13 populations in Japan. The genetic diversity of the Itami-Airport population in the Kinki district was the highest, suggesting that the population was large and stable. Conversely, the genetic diversity of the Ishikawa and Tochigi populations was markedly lower than that observed elsewhere, suggesting that these populations were isolated and that their habitats were fragmented. The Itami-Airport population, which had the highest genetic diversity, is considered to be an important reservoir of genetic variation for maintaining genetic diversity in this species.
