Evolutionary Relationship between Two Firefly Species, <i>Curtos costipennis</i> and <i>C. okinawanus</i> (Coleoptera, Lampyridae), in the Ryukyu Islands of Japan Revealed by the Mitochondrial and Nuclear DNA Sequences

<table>Neighbor-joining tree based on the Jukes-Cantor distances calculated using the 856 bp long data set of the nuclear rDNA ITS2 sequence. Different sequences obtained from the same individuals were distinguished by lower-case letters, a and b, included in the taxon name. Bootstrap confidence levels calculated based on 1000 replications are shown near the nodes. This tree was unrooted.</table>
