  1. N = number of individuals sequenced (this number corresponds to the number of COI sequences and half of the ITS-2 sequences generated), H = number of haplotypes recovered (including values corrected for differences in sample size using Nmax = 40 for COI and Nmax = 32 for ITS-2), h = haplotype or gene diversity.
