Description

[Synopsis] We carried out a biological research at the Yaeyama islands in Okinawa Prefecture, from March 27 to April 3, 2012. The research islands were Ishigaki, Iriomote and Taketomi island. In a total of three islands, 41 species of five families of butterflies, three species of two families of amphibians, four species of three families of reptiles and seven species of six families of wild birds were recorded. Only 41 species of butterflies were recorded because of the bad weather. We collected migrated butterflies.
