Gypsy moth populations from Japan, mainland Asia, Europe, Tunisia, and North America were analyzed for variation in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences from three gene regions. These samples resolve into four groups, representing gypsy moths from (1) Okinawa, Japan, (2) Hokkaido, Japan, (3) Honshu and Kyushu, Japan and mainland Asia, and (4) Europe, Tunisia, and North America. Some patterns of geographic variation observed for mtDNA (for example, the distinctiveness of gypsy moths from Hokkaido, Japan) coincide with those observed by Goldschmidt from analyses of morphology, life history, and intersexuality. Other patterns (relative sequence homogeneity across Asia, Honshu, and Kyushu and reduced levels of variation in mainland Japan) do not.
对来自日本、亚洲大陆、欧洲、突尼斯和北美的舞毒蛾种群进行了分析，以研究三个基因区域的线粒体DNA（mtDNA）序列变异情况。这些样本分为四组，分别代表来自（1）日本冲绳、（2）日本北海道、（3）日本本州和九州以及亚洲大陆，以及（4）欧洲、突尼斯和北美的舞毒蛾。观察到的mtDNA地理变异模式（例如，日本北海道舞毒蛾的独特性）与戈德施密特通过形态学、生活史和雌雄间性分析所观察到的模式一致。其他模式（亚洲、本州和九州的相对序列同质性以及日本大陆变异水平的降低）则不一致。
