A biometric authentication system () records, in a storage unit in an associating manner, position information of a feature area on an image of biometric information whose biometric authentication is successful and reference biometric information referred to in the successful biometric authentication, the feature area being specific to a living-body, and detects a feature area that is specific to a living-body from an image of biometric information of an input object to be authenticated, and narrows down the reference biometric information stored in the storage unit to reference biometric information to be compared with the biometric information of the object to be authenticated, based on the degree of similarity between each position information, and authenticates the biometric information of the object to be authenticated by comparing the reference biometric information obtained as a narrowing-down result and the biometric information of the object to be authenticated.
