N: number of analyzed individuals. NH: number of haplotypes. Hd: haplotype diversity. sd: standard deviation. π: uncorrected nucleotide diversity. All indices were calculated in DnaSP. For previously published sequences, the original subspecies assignments were used. Our own samples are assigned to subspecies according to their mtDNA clades in Figure 1. Numbers in brackets are the respective indices when the probably misassigned individuals #1 to #9 are put in the mtDNA clades as presented in Figure 1.
