Figure 1 . The pterosaur relationships and stratigraphical/geographical ranges used in the ‘all taxa’ Treefitter data-set. This tree is based on the cladogram presented by Andres et al. (2014) and shows the more basal portion in detail (Eupterodactyloidea has been condensed to a single branch – see Figure 2). The thick branches represent known stratigraphical ranges (based on data in The Paleobiology Database); thin branches represent estimated ghost ranges and connectors used to demarcate phylogenetic relationships. Time-sliced data-sets were derived from this tree by appropriate inclusion/exclusion of taxa. Most stratigraphical stage and taxon abbreviations are listed in the legend of Table 1. Additional abbreviations: CA, Central Asia; CO, Coniacian; EA, East Asia; Eop, Eopterosauria; EU, Europe; Euc, Euctenochasmatia; KI, Kimmeridgian; NA, North America; OX, Oxfordian; RH, Rhaetian; SA (after taxon name), South America; SA (time scale), Santonian; TU, Turonian.
