Figure 1

Chronogram of CA Heroine diversification. Likelihood ancestral areas are reconstructed at nodes as either Central American (white) or South American + Greater Antilles (black). The tips as well as many of the nodes in the phylogeny are only one color and therefore are reconstructed with virtually 100% probability as one state. The pie diagrams that exhibit both colors represent ambiguous likelihood reconstructions of the area at that node and are depicted at larger sizes. Posterior probabilities of nodes are shown on the branch preceding the nodes and are indicated with an * if there is 100% Bayesian support for the node. Other numbers behind the nodes represent the percentage that that node was recovered among topologies saved in the Bayesian analysis. Only support values above 50% are depicted. The node calibrated with divergence of 7.5 million years before present (mybp) around the Punta del Morro is shown with an X. A temporal scale running from 15.0 mybp to the recent is shown below the chronogram. An image of a typical Central American Heroine cichlid, Herichthys cyanoguttatus, is shown nested within the phylogeny.
