Comparative phylogeography between two generalist flea species reveal a complex interaction between parasite life history and host vicariance: parasite-host association matters

Hierarchical analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) of mitochondrial DNA (COII) and nuclear intron (EF1-α) in two flea species for BAPS subclusters. Fixation index values are given for the hierarchical levels examined: F _ST within localities; F _CT among subclusters; and F _SC among localities within subclusters. Significant (p < 0.05) tests are indicated in bold
