In B. bicaudatus, structure was significant within and among sites, but was not significant at the largest spatial scale (that is, drainages were not a meaningful grouping of genetic variation). In B. tricaudatus, population structure was also significant within and among sites, and was approaching significance even at the largest spatial scale. Only sites with n⩾9 were included in the analysis of molecular variance analysis. P-values were corrected for multiple tests.
