Fig. 3. A, Lutrogale perspicillata network computed using haplotypes (h) from the 305 bp-long sequence alignment (modern + museum DNA and GenBank entries). A scale to infer the number of sequences for each pie (i.e., haplotype) was provided together with a length bar to compute the number of mutational changes. The colour of each country and the number of each haplotype are indicated. See Table S1 for more details. B, Mismatch Distributions (MD) of the mtDNA pairwise differences (dotted: observed; line: expected) calculated for South East Asia haplogroup (Fig. 3A). Estimates of FS and R2 statistics (with related P values), r (raggedness index) and the outcome of SSD and SSD* test under a model (H0) of sudden demographic and spatial population expansion, respectively, are provided.

Fig. 1. Lutrogale perspicillata distribution (in yellow; see insets for Iraq and Pakistan) including sampling localities of modern (white circles) and museum (green squares) individuals. As far as the latter are concerned, we reported only sites for which samples were successfully investigated (see Table S1 for the entire sample size of this study; symbol "?" stands for unknown locality). The white stars indicate, in Iraq, the locality (TaqTaq, Kurdistan) where the sample of Omer et al. (2012) was collected, in Cambodia/Thailand and Malaysia, the country/ies of origin of EF472348 and KY117557 GenBank sequence, respectively. In Iraq, Pakistan, and supposedly Java, Indonesia, the green squares indicate localities (when known) of L. p. maxwelli, L. p. sindica, and L. p. perspicillata museum holotypes, respectively. Finally, Naga Hills at the border between Myanmar and India as well as Bahoo-Kalat River Basin between Iran and Pakistan are indicated (see text for more details). The species' geographic range was adapted from IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) 2015. Lutrogale perspicillata. The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species 2019-3 was modified using CorelDraw!12 (2003). Digital images (insets) were obtained from Google Earth 7.1.5.1557 (2015 Google Inc.) and Google Earth map data (Data SIO, NOAA, U.S. Navy, NGA, GEBCO - Image Landsat). Please note that thick dotted lines mark out new borders for L. p. sindica and L. p. perspicillata subspecies as established in this study (see text for more details).
