Node estimates compared across the GLA, sGLA, and BEAST methods.

<p>Nineteen key nodes were chosen for direct comparison across the three methods examined. Time scaled to geologic time scale above. Clade name abbreviations are on the right. For each clade name, the depicted node estimate from top to bottom go as follows; GLA estimate with solid bar showing the minimum to maximum stratigraphic error, sGLA estimate, BEAST estimate with error bar representing the 95% highest probability density. Key for these node labels is in the upper left hand corner. A summary cladogram is provided at the bottom.
