Abstract: High-elevation habitats in the Appalachian Mountains of the United States have been shown to harbor many northern disjunct species. Prevailing theory is that populations in these habitats typically represent remnant-isolate populations from previously existing Quaternary communities. In this study I sought to develop a preliminary understanding of the basic populational and regional structuring in one of these northern disjunct species, in hopes of better understanding the relationships between population interactions and histories.
