Note: The sampling sites are categorized into two regions: South America (SA) and the West Antarctic Peninsula (WAP). Each site is identified by an abbreviation (code), geographic coordinates, the numbers of individual sequenced (N), depth, and genetic diversity indices for both mitochondrial mtMutS+Cox1 (mt) and 28S genes, including the number of haplotypes (h) and nucleotide diversity (π).
