Fig 3. Ancestral range estimation for the subgenus Paraphlebotomus sensu nov.

Geographic areas as delineated on the map are represented with colored boxes. A: West Mediterranean region; B: Saharo-Arabian region; C: Sudanian region; D: Somalian region; E: East Mediterranean region; F: Irano-Turanian. Most probable ancestral states (areas or combination of areas) as inferred by DEC and DIVALIKE are indicated at each node of the phylogeny. When states are different between the two models, the most probable state as inferred by DIVALIKE is indicated first. Input data (matrix of geographic ranges for species included in the analysis, time periods and dispersal multipliers); ancestral range estimations for all tested models (DEC, DIVALIKE, BAYAREALIKE), and results of model testing are available in S1–S4 Text. The background map was in the public domain and has been downloaded from Natural Earth (http://www.naturalearthdata.com).
