Outline of Final Research Achievements

The Drosophila virilis section is widely distributed in the Northern Hemisphere, and the author has made extensive field studies in continuous greenbelts from Southeast Asia to East Siberia, throughout the Japanese Islands. Japan possesses all species groups of the virilis section, and keeps a high biodiversity of this taxonomic group. Japan was the migration route for the species, which had diversified in North America. The northern-most border of tropical members lies in the Watase Line of the zoogeography between Amami and Yakushima, and that of a warm temperate member of the robusta group does in the Blackiston Line in the Tsugaru Straight. Karyotypes of tropic D. angor and D. fluvialis were examined, and both species had the acrocentric X chromosome. This result supports their phylogenetic positions inferred from the molecular data.
