“…For example, the ~1,000 additional full‐sibling matches identified in our data set using colony are probably an artefact caused by a mismatch between the characteristics of our data and the capabilities of this methodology, specifically the behaviour of unpenalized maximum likelihood with very large samples (Almudevar & Anderson, ). Genetic results indicating high levels of self‐retention should always be coupled with a complete explanation of the methods used to generate those results (Harrison, Saenz‐Agudelo, Planes, Jones, & Berumen, 2013a, 2013b; Saenz‐Agudelo, Jones, Thorrold, & Planes, ), because the ability to accurately identify true relationships hinges on the statistical power of a given panel of genetic markers, and uncertainty involved in genetic and parentage analyses can lead to uncertainty in estimates of dispersal (Kaplan et al, ). Note that it is exceedingly difficult to discriminate full and half siblings, as well as other categories of related individuals, with genetic data (Baetscher et al, ).…”
