Population and subspecies differentiation in a high latitude breeding wader, the Common Ringed Plover Charadrius hiaticula
Exploring the patterns of genetic structure in the context of geographical andphenotypic variation is important to understand the evolutionary processesinvolved in speciation.

Exploring the patterns of genetic structure in the context of geographical andphenotypic variation is important to understand the evolutionary processesinvolved in speciation. We investigated population and subspecies differentiationin the Common Ringed Plover Charadrius hiaticula, a high latitude wader thatbreeds in arctic and temperate zones from northeast Canada across Eurasia tothe Russian Far East. Three subspecies, hiaticula, tundrae and psammo -dromus, are currently widely recognised, whereas a fourth subspecies, kolymensis,has been proposed based on geographic isolation and phenotypicdifferences. We genotyped 173 samples from eleven Common Ringed Ploverbreeding sites, representing all four putative subspecies, at eight polymorphicmicrosatellite loci to examine the patterns of population and subspecies differentiation.Bayesian clustering identified three genetic clusters among samples,corresponding to the breeding sites of the three currently recognised sub -species.
