Summary of mean net diversification, speciation and extinction rates estimated by BAMM for clades for which rate shifts were indicated by BAMM45,46 and MEDUSA116. + indicates a higher focal net diversification rate compared to the background net diversification rate; − indicates a higher background net diversification rate than in the focal clade. Note that this does not indicate a positive or negative rate shift per se, as the mean background rate may be different from the mean rate in a particular subtree. The three clades with the highest net diversification rates are highlighted in bold font. Rate estimates are given for both topology C-1 and A-0. net. div = net diversification rate, spec. = speciation rate, ext. = extinction rate, Δ net. div. = difference between net diversification rate in the focal clade and the background rate, int. = internal. All rates are rounded to the third decimal. Latin and roman numbers refer to shifts as labeled in Fig. 3, Supplementary Figs. 20 and 22, and Supplementary Data 9.
