Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The present study revealed the evolutionary event which showed the intertidal ostracods diversified, got to be cold tolerant, and invaded northwards through the Sea of japan during late tertiary and Quaternary. The studied taxon was a genus Boreostoma of subfamily Paradoxostomatinae. Their worldwide distribution was examined and the result showed that an ancestral species appeared in Kuroshio area and the species spectated and diversified in the Sea of Japan, then proceeds northwards to reach Oyashio area of eastern Hokkaido. The species reached Oyashio area speciated again to finally distributed high latitudes of northern hemisphere, e.g. western coast of Canada and southern coast of Britain. The DNA analysis clearly showed that it took relatively long for the evolutionary event to reach from Kuroshio to Oyashio areas, but relatively short to spread from Oyashio area to Canada and Britain, which seems interesting to take the geographical distance into consideration.
