To examine the taxonomic status of Tscherskia triton nestor, which inhabits in Korea, we first obtained partial cytochrome oxidase I and cytochrome b sequences of T. t. nestor from the Korean jeju island and Tscherskia triton fuscipes from northeastern China, and these sequences were compared with the corresponding sequences of Tscherskia triton, available from GenBank. In the COI analysis, T.t. nestor from Jeju was distinct from T.t. fuscipe from northeasern China, with the average jukes-Cantor distance of 3.45% , and in the cytochrome b analysis, T.t. nestor from Jeju was divergent from T.t. fuscipes from northeastern Chena and T.t. triton from the North China plain, with the average distance of 3.88%.
