Abstract
Methods
Microsatellite Data
Eight microsatellite loci were amplified using PCR and reactions were screened for success using agarose gel electrophoresis. Successful reactions were subjected to capillary electrophoresis using an ABI 3730 and GENESCAN LIZ 600 as an internal sizing standard. Standard curve fitting, genotype scoring, and binning were performed using the microsatellite plugin for GENEIOUS, version R9 (Biomatters).

Usage notes
Microsatellite Data
Missing genotypes are denoted with '0'. Genotypes are given as binned fragment lengths in two column per locus format. Metadata include individual identifiers (Animal_ID), species (Pc = Plethodon cinereus, Ph = Plethodon hubrichti), whether individuals were collected specifically for having unusal morphology (yes/no), and the population grouping used in downstream analyses (PcCZ = P. cinereus contact zone, THRID = Thunder Ridge (P. cinereus reference site), FF = Floyd's Field (P. hubrichti reference site), PhCZ = P. hubrichti contact zone).
