>Did you know that the entire human species has less genetic diversity than a a single troop of chimpanzees

You realize how this really doesn't mean much when we're talking about phenotypical difference? There is no correlation between genetic diversity and the number of recognized subspecies. After all, African are said to have the highest genetic diversity (although I'm not sure how or why this claim is being made), compared to non-African. Assuming this is true, that doesn't tell us much because non-Africans clearly have more phenotypical differences compared to Africans.
