Description

<p>Of the five species in the genus Platypleura, P. yayeyamana and P. albivannata are distributed in Ishigaki Island. Among these, P. albivannata was designated as a critically endangered species in 2002, and is one of the most vulnerable insect species in Japan. There is an urgent need to develop methods for estimating the number of individuals that occur in the habitat area of P. albivannata and for searching for new habitats of P. albivannata. To simplify the methods of species identification, this study aimed to develop an application that performs voice recording and species identification by recording calling songs with a mobile terminal. We developed an application that can extract the characteristics of each species based on the sound data of these species recorded so far, and can determine the species. Due to the problem of epidemic COVID-19, we were unable to conduct the monitoring survey originally planned, but we completed the prototype of application and it is now ready for the practical use at conservation sites.</p>
