Levels of sequence divergence were variable across the taxa examined. Thus, while conspecific individuals
collected from a single site often exhibited zero or small divergence values, other specimens sometimes exhibited
higher values (withinS. huairayacu for example) (Table 1). The intraspecific divergence averaged 0.5% (range
0–1.2%) (Table 1), while interspecific genetic divergence averaged 11.2% (range 2.8–19.5%) (Table 3)
