n = number of samples, M = Male, F = Female, I = undetermined sex, π = nucleotide diversity, N = number of haplotypes, NP = number of haplotypes unique to a region. Mean number of alleles (allelic richness), Simpson's allelic diversity, Ho = observed heterozygosity, He = expected heterozygosity, alleles unique to each region.
