In a genus, this age is taken as the older confidence interval (CI) bound of the age of the most recent common ancestor (MRCA) of divaricate species or clades and their non‐divaricate sisters. Genera are ordered by increasing age. Also provided is the proportion of divaricate species of each genus (according to the list compiled by Maurin & Lusk, 2021) that we sampled. Ma, million years ago.
