Table 3.

Estimates of populations sizes, migration rates and effective number of migrants for pairwise population comparisons. Upper and lower confidence limits of 95 % highest posterior probability intervals are given for each parameter. Demographic estimates were calculated using COI sequence mutation rate of 7.313 × 10−6 mutations per site per year. Population migration rates, 2Ne0 m0>1 and 2Ne1 m1>0 are scaled by effective population sizes, where 2Ne0 m0>1 is the effective number of migrants into population 1 from population 0 and 2Ne1 m1>0 is the effective number of migrants into population 0 from population 1. q0, q1 and qA are the estimates of population size for populations 0, population 1 and ancestral population, respectively
