Time estimates for major neobatrachian splits.

Mean node ages (Ma) and 95% highest posterior density (HPD) obtained for Neobatrachia. The more likely ancestral range, time scale and support value (BP) are also showed. The underlined values refer to five major lineages of Neobatrachia studied here. B. Neotropic (NT) + Panamanian (PM): South America, Central America and adjacent islands; D. Afrotropical (AT) + Saharo-Arabian (S-A): all territory of African continent plus Middle East, northern Africa, except Sudan, plus Middle East; E. India and Sri Lanka (IN); F. Madagascan (MA): Madagascar and adjacent islands, including Seychelles, Mauritius and Reunion; H. Australian (AU) + Oceanian (OC): Australian region and adjacent islands, Papua New Guinea and adjacent islands. Time estimates for major neobatrachian splits.
