Samples of the Dolly Varden Salvelinus malma including one population of S. malma miyabei collected from 11 localities in the Hokkaido Island, Japan, were genetically character ized at 22 protein coding loci using starch-gel electrophoresis, in order to assess the genetic variability within and between populations, and to estimate genetic differentiation on both between the two subspecies, S. malma malma and S. malma miyabei, and among the populations of the former subspecies. The genetic variability within each popUlation were low (P=O-O.IS and H=0-0.045) while the genetic variability between them was high (GsT=O.48), suggesting that the population sizes of most S. malma populations in Hokkaido are small or have passed through a bottleneck effect in their recent history and that each population is isolated with no gene flow between them. One population of S. malma malma from the Chihase River was found to differ markedly from other 9 populations of S. malma malma (D=O.058), showing as same genetic divergence as the population of S. malma miyabei from the 9 populations above (0.052). On the other hand, the high genetic differentiation of S. malma miyabei from the populations of S. malma malma supports the view that they should be given a taxonomic status as a subspecies.
