Distinct Alignment Patterns

Hello,

What, if any, is the relationship between the number of distinct alignment patters and the proportion of invariant sites? Thanks.

Don't you get the distinct alignment patterns if you substract the number of invariable sites from your total number of sites? Or am I seeing this completely wrong?

Best,
