Table 2. Divergence dates of the seven Poicephalus species, with Psittacus erithacus as outgroup, analysed with a Bayesian lognormal relaxed-clock model.

The mean estimated values and the 95% highest posterior density (HPD) ranges are given for the two dataset partitions. The node numbers correspond to Fig 4B. See S1 Fig for the corresponding maximum clade probability trees.
