  1. Four simulated mixtures are presented; each mixture comprised eight samples (each making up 12.5% of a 100% individual mixture) with mixtures 1 and 2 including a river from each reporting region, mixture 3 a combination of southern rivers (incorporating two rivers from each region) and mixture 4 a combination of northern rivers (incorporating two rivers from each region). Stock compositions were estimated at the level of individual sample sites (3rd column, 'Sample Estimate') and reporting regions (4th column, 'Regional Estimate') via the allocate and sum method. One-hundred fish were used in the mixture sample, with 100 simulations. Individual samples are identified by tributary name; see Additional File 1 for details of latitude and longitude, collection date and individual sample size.
