Table 1 Summary statistics for Kentish and White-faced Plover populations, with \({{\rm{d}}}_{{\rm{xy}}}\) (genetic distance) displayed above the diagonal and \({{\rm{F}}}_{{\rm{ST}}}\) (population differentiation) below the diagonal. Kentish Plover – western China comprises populations from Xinjiang and Qinghai, and Kentish Plover – eastern China comprises all other mainland Chinese populations and Taiwan.
