Abstract

The phylogenetic analysis was carried out to find out the validity of Chrysochroa coreana as a new species. The insectspecimens were collected at Kaohsiung, Taiwan and Shizuoka, Japan. Partial region (532 bp) of COI was amplified andsequenced. The sequences were aligned and then analyzed. Based on the Kimura-2-parameter method, we calculatedgenetic distances among them. It indicated that the Korean individual of C. fulgidissima was closely related to Taiwan onewith relatively low genetic distance (0.083). On the other hand, the Japanese individual was remotely related with thoseof Korean (0.192) and Taiwan (0.183) individuals. To clarify if the populations of C. fulgidissima from Korea, Taiwan, andJapan are different at the level(s) of subspecies, species, or genus, it is necessary that more samples of the members of thefamily Buprestidae should be collected and genetically analyzed.
