Table 4.

Species of mammals for which data on genetic variation (%) in cytochrome-b data has been generated from different geographic localities that could potentially identify phylogroups that represent different species. n = number of specimens sampled. Potential unrecognized species are the number of phylogroups in that species with variation > 5% minus 1 for the phylogroup that contains the holotype for the species.

Species as defined in
