The black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) (Diptera: Stratiomyidae) is an invasive species that is thought to be endemic in Korea. The insect has been paid much attention thanks to its ability to decompose organic wastes. We collected the insect nation-wide in 2006 and 2010 to investigate its genetic structure based on the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase 1 (mt CO1) haplotype. The results show that during the time period the insect seems to lose some rare haplotypes. We conclude that the insect may have experienced genetic bottleneck while its settlement in Korea. In our presentation, we show its updated haplotype network and genetic differentiation and propose potential explanations.
