Daftar kupu-kupu Jepang

Berikut ini adalah daftar kupu-kupu di Jepang. Sekitar 327 spesies diketahui dari Jepang.

Negara Jepang adalah rumah bagi sembilan kawasan ekologi hutan, yang mencerminkan iklim dan geografinya. Pulau-pulau yang membentuk Jepang umumnya memiliki iklim lembab, berkisar dari subtropis hangat di pulau selatan hingga beriklim sejuk di pulau utara Hokkaidō.

Negara Jepang terletak pada konvergensi tiga wilayah terestrial, Paleartik, Indomalaya, dan Oseania, serta flora dan faunanya memadukan unsur-unsur dari ketiga wilayah tersebut. Kawasan ekologi yang meliputi pulau-pulau utama Jepang, Honshū, Hokkaidō, Kyūshū, dan Shikoku, bersama dengan pulau-pulau terdekat, dianggap sebagai bagian dari wilayah Paleartik. Busur kepulauan di selatan Jepang, Kepulauan Ryukyu di barat daya dan Kepulauan Ogasawara di tenggara, adalah rumah bagi kawasan ekologihutan subtropis basah berdaun lebar; kawasan ekologi hutan subtropis hijau abadi Kepulauan Nansei adalah bagian dari wilayah Indomalaya, sedangkan hutan subtropis basah Ogasawara dari Ogasawaras adalah bagian dari wilayah Oseania.

Kawasan ekologi terestrial terdiri dari:
Hutan berdaun lebar dan hutan campuran beriklim sedang: Hutan gugur Hokkaidō, Hutan hijau abadi Nihonkai, Hutan gugur pegunungan Nihonkai, Hutan hijau abadi Taiheiyo, Hutan gugur pegunungan Taiheiyo
Hutan konifer beriklim sedang: Hutan konifer pegunungan Hokkaidō, hutan konifer Honshū alpine
Hutan tropis dan subtropis basah berdaun lebar: Hutan subtropis hijau abadi Kepulauan Nansei, hutan subtropis basah Ogasawara.

Habitat kupu-kupu yang paling penting dan terancam punah di Jepang adalah Satoyama, istilah Jepang yang diterapkan pada zona perbatasan atau daerah antara kaki gunung dan tanah datar subur.
