Koala sample numbers were based on studbook numbers (“SN”) for zoos, and specimen numbers for each museum. Wild modern samples were from the National Cancer Institute (NCI), and have NCI codes. North Australian samples are from Queensland; NSW is New South Wales. Collection dates for archival samples were confirmed by K.H. from museum records; date ranges listed are as exact as possible given museum records. Plus sign indicates successful attempt; minus sign indicates attempted unsuccessfully; blank indicates not attempted. Prior env sequences refer to those derived from PCR and reported in [6]. Flanking sequences for modern koala samples are from Ishida et al. (submitted).
