  1. "no" indicates absence, "yes" indicates presence; the posterior probabilities were estimated using SIMMAP and the last 2000 post-burnin trees of the 20,000 used to derive the consensus tree of Fig. 2. Significantly positive values (p > 0.95) are given in bold. Node numbers refer to those shown in Fig. 2.
