| Research Abstract |
A highly endangered dragonfly species, Libellula angelina, rapidly lost their habitats, and currently only a few ponds are known to be stable. From the viewpoint of conservation genetics, its genetic diversity is very important information on the conservation policy but the species is protected by the law of "Endangered Specis Preservation Act" in Japan. To obtain tissues for DNA extraction is rather difficult but the tissues remained inside of the exuviae were appropriate for DNA extraction. On one of the populations of Shizoka Prefecture, the estimation of mitochondrial haplotype diversity revealed that very good genetic diversity were kept in the population.
