TABLE 1.

Pairwise genetic distance matrix between contra, superciliaris, floweri and jalla (within the Asian Pied Starling [Gracupica contra] complex) and Javan Myna (Acridotheres javanicus) based on the mitochondrial ND2 gene

	contra				superciliaris		floweri			jalla
contra
superciliaris	1.6%–1.9%
floweri	2.6%–3.1%				2.9%–3.2%
jalla	2.8%–3.2%				3.0%–3.1%		1.7%–2.1%
Acridotheres javanicus	10.3%–10.6%				9.8%		10.2%–10.4%			10.4%–10.5%

Mega7 was used to calculate raw, uncorrected pairwise distances using the pairwise deletion option for missing data.
