Appendix A (Table A1). Descriptive statistics for amplified fragment length polymorphism variation at 18 sites in the Hubbard Brook watershed, New Hampshire, USA, where Gyrinophilus porphyriticus tissue samples were collected. Downstream and upstream sites were separated by 1 km, measured along each stream.
