  1. Nanc: effective population size of the ancestral deme; Ti: time of the onset of the island (in generations); Nm: product of the effective population size N and the migration rate m for each deme; SCD: scatter dataset (9 individuals); SID: single deme dataset (11 individuals); pooled dataset: SCD + SID without shared samples (18 individuals).
  2. aUpper and lower limits of the 95% credible interval about the estimated mode.
  3. bU, uniform probability, in the range of the two values.
