analysed nine microsatellite markers for 626 individuals representing the geographic range of eight closely related endemic New Zealand species of . Structure analysis identified the optimal value as seven, with samples identified as , , , and retrieved as well-defined groups. The remaining samples formed less resolved groups referable to and , with and forming the seventh group. Our data suggest that considerable admixture occurs and this is most likely the result of hybridisation or introgression. shows admixture with the sympatric , and the widespread exhibits admixture with the sympatric , , and .
对代表新西兰8种密切相关的特有物种地理分布范围的626个个体分析了9个微卫星标记。结构分析确定最佳K值为7，样本被确定为A、B、C和D被检索为界限分明的组。其余样本形成了不太明确的组，可归为E和F，G和H形成第七组。我们的数据表明发生了大量混合，这很可能是杂交或基因渗入的结果。A显示与同域的B混合，广泛分布的C与同域的D、E和F表现出混合。
