Figure 2

Molecular timescale and ancestral area reconstruction for Adenominae. Coloured rectangles indicate the area of sampling. Asterisks indicate lineages endemic to the Western Ghats-Sri Lanka (WG-SL) biodiversity hotspot. Circles on the nodes indicate ancestral area reconstructions (DIVA): black circles show ancestral species whose distribution is restricted to the WG-SL hotspot, white circles show ancestral species with a broader or other distribution. Exact reconstructions and divergence time estimates are given in Table 3, where node numbers are cross-referenced. The grey box indicates the timeframe between the nodes representing the earliest possible dispersal in, and latest possible dispersal out of the WG-SL biodiversity hotspot (DIVA analysis).
