  1. Maximum likelihood distance values between clades (in percentage). 12SrDNA = small mitochondrial ribosmal subunit, COII = Cytochrome oxidase c subunit II, DL = control region or d-loop; ITS2 = intergenic spacer 2.12SrDNA, ITS2 and mtDNA (mitochondrial concatenated) above diagonals (in bold), COII, DL, and n+mtDNA (nuclear and mitochondrial concatenated) below diagonals. NW = Ecuador, Costa Rica, Mexico, Texas; CO = Colombia; NE = French Guiana + Venzuela + Brazil (Rondonia); EA = Brazil (Atlantic Coast, Mato Grosso) + Argentina (Yungas); AR = Agentina + Paraguay (Chaco); PE = Perú.
