A class of statistical distance measures and their spectral counterparts are presented. They have strong physical foundations since they are based on the combinatorial law leading to Bose-Einstein statistics in statistical physics. It is shown that these distance measures are very closely related to the recently introduced Jensen-Shannon divergence measure. The Kullback-Leibler information (1951) number is found to be a limit case of this class
