The genusCrepidiastrumis distributed in East Asia and includes 7 species. In the Bonin Islands, three species ofCrepidiastrumoccur, and all of them are endemic to the islands. For detecting the origin and speciation of these endemic species, electrophoretic studies have been done in three endemic species of the Bonin Islands as well as in the remaining four species ofCrepidiastrum, andYoungia denticulatawhich is considered to be closely related toCrepidiastrum.A total of 386 individuals were sampled from 14 populations. As a result, 17 loci of 10 enzyme systems were resolved and gene frequencies for each population were calculated. The genetic variability was low in island species, as reported in some oceanic island plants. Four groups were recognized in the dendrogram generated by the UPGMA method. The Bonin endemics were clustered together, suggesting a monophyletic origin.C. ameristophyllumandC. linguaefoliumwere found to be genetically very similar, and this may suggest recent and rapid speciation within the islands.
