N is the number of individuals and in parentheses is the number of species sampled for each genus; S is the number of segregating sites; π is nucleotide diversity [77]; θ_w is estimated from S [78]. ^aCalculations were carried out using mtgenome sequences excluding the control regions from the 26 individuals [6]. ^bCalculations were carried out using 85 cytochrome b gene sequences (GenBank IDs of the cytochrome b genes were listed in [20]).
