Presented are median ages and 95% HPD intervals across three separate sets of MCMCTREE analyses, implementing different root calibrations. Crown group ages are given for major lineages. Node numbers refer to Fig. 2. For a full summary of results from all analyses, refer to Additional file 13. For calibrated nodes (indicated by *), median root range estimates are given from analyses that excluded this calibration
