Abstract

The paper presents qualitative and quantitative composition of the nucleotide sequences of the 5'‑region of the first subunit of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase (COI) gene (decoded in the framework of the International DNA Barcoding Project) and the variability of the corresponding amino acid sequences in the genus Jordanita Verity, 1946. The number of variable positions in the COI region (219 amino acid residues) is 14.2% that significantly exceeds the data for other Lepidoptera. Thirty one amino acid variable positions were revealed, and two of them are localized near the active site of the enzyme.
