Question

NAME- 9) How does the average physical distance between ORF and the three southernmost populations compare with the physical distance between ORF and the three northernmost populations? 10) Can you see any explanation for the outlying data points in Figure 2? 11) Refer to all figures for this question. Which figure or figures in this paper relate most to the historical biogeography of the Axarus sp. midges and why?

Numbers at the nodes are bootstrap values.

Explanation / Answer

9) Average physical distance between ORF and three Northernmost population = 117

Average physical distance between ORF and three southernmost population = 241

The average physical distance between ORF and three southernmost population is more than Northernmost population.
