The nesting beaches of the southeastern US are appropriate for examining regional
population structure. This area hosts one of the largest nesting aggregates in the world …

Complex population structure can result from either sex‐biased gene flow or population
overlap during migrations. Loggerhead turtles (Caretta caretta) have both traits, providing an …
