Table 4.

Dates in Mya, standard deviations, and 95% intervals (in parenthesis) obtained with parametric bootstrap using the original topology (Single topology) or new tree calculations (Several topologies) for each simulation of the mtDNA cytochrome b of Caprinae. The calibration is based on the isolation of Myotragus in the Balearic Islands at 5.35 million years ago.
