The phylogenetic relationship of Draco fimbriatus with other congeneric species was inferred from 848 base pairs of the mitochondrial 12S and 16S rRNA genes. The results confirmed that the closest affinity was between D. fimbriatus and D. maculatus. Our results also suggested that D. lineatus diverged first, followed by the D. cornutus-D. volans cluster, D. dussumieri, the D. fimbriatus-D. maculatus cluster, and D. blanfordii in that order, leaving D. obscurus and D. taeniopterus as monophyletic. The taxonomic diversity of Draco in each area of Southeast Asia appears to have increased through multiple colonizations rather than through in situ diversifications.
