Ne 1442 [0, 4428] 321 [102, 539] 18 [7, 29]
De (individuals/km2) 9614 2138 120

The 95% confidence intervals (Ne ± t × standard error over estimates) are indicated in square brackets, from which densities were estimated. Migration rate m and dispersal distance σ were estimated with Rousset's model of isolation by distance in two dimensions and 95% confidence intervals indicated in square brackets were computed by bootstrap over loci (see text for more details).
