Abstract
The nucleotide sequences of cytochromoxidase COI gene from 76 specimens of blue butterflies of subgenus Polyommatus (s. str.) were determined. These speciments belong to 36 taxa with species and subspecies status. Phylogenetic reconstruction by neigbour joining method reveals among all the diversity of taxa studied only 12 monophyletic clades corresponding to species-level taxa: P. icarus, P. ciloicus, P. icadius, P. amorata, P. eros, P. forsteri, P. celina, P. venus, P. ariana, P. sto- liczkanus, P. erigone, P. amor.
