	Date for the MRCAa (year)	Evolutionary rate (μ) (substitutions/site/year)	Coefficient of variation for μ
Skyline	1818 [1727–1889]	9.71 × 10−4 [7.18 × 10−4–1.25 × 10−3]	0.76 [0.58–0.96]
Skyride	1818 [1736–1891]	9.39 × 10−4 [7.01 × 10−4–1.21 × 10−3]	0.75 [0.58–0.95]
Skygrid	1852 [1791–1903]	1.01 × 10−3 [7.51 × 10−4–1.32 × 10−3]	0.78 [0.59–0.99]
