Abstract

In order to estimate the geohistory of Ryukyu Arc and the origin of terrestrial biota in the recent Ryukyu Islands, many paleogeographic maps have been drawn based on geologic and biologic hypotheses. However it has not come up with the conclusive paleogeographic maps yet. With this being the situation, to suggest more feasible hypothesis, we had a try at the comparative study on the existing paleogeographic maps mainly for Pleistocene. As a preliminary product, some paleogeographic maps of Ryukyu Arc and its surroundings redrawn with uniform projection are shown in this paper.
