Mark and recapture experiments of blow flies, Calliphora nigribarbis Vollenhoven and Aldrichina grahami (Aldrich), were attempted on Hachijo Island, Tokyo, in the autumn of 1983 and the spring of 1984 to investigate their seasonal migration. One female C. nigribarbis released at Station (St.) M (altitude 700m) in the moss forest of Mt. Hachijo-Fuji (854m) at the end of October 1983 was recaptured at St. 1 (50m) in the town at the end of November. At the end of March 1984,a total of 841 flies of both sexes of C. nigribarbis and A. grahami were marked and released at St. T (50m). One male and one female C. nigribarbis and one male A. grahami were recaptured at St. G (600m), St. 3 (400m) and St. 2 (200m), respectively, at the end of April. One female C. nigribarbis released on 24-25 May 1984 at St. T was trapped at St. 4 (600m) on 29 May 1984. The result of mark and recapture experiments confirmed the possibility that adults emerged in the town migrate from the lowland to the moss forest of Mt. Hachijo-Fuji before summer. Some of them most probably return to the lowland in autumn.
