North and central Italy, R1b predominates.
Southern Italy and Sicily, J2 predominates.

Northern and central Italy have strong Italo-Celtic input.
Southern Italy has some affinities to the Levant and Near East.
There is also southern Balkan input (Illyrian/Albanian and Greek) in southern Italy which can be seen in the frequency of haplogroup E1b1b, and its subclades.

^ Yes.. as can be seen the Near Eastern impact is higher in the south, and the Italo-Celtic in the north.
Here are some other Italy maps about various Y-Dna haplogroups:

Seems to be that of the main haplogroups, according the 4 regional division of Italy (North, Central, South & Sardinia), would be this:
R1b: North
R1a: North
I1: North
I2: Sardinia
J1: Central
J2: Central
E1b1: South
