The Mitochondrial Genome of Elodia flavipalpis Aldrich (Diptera: Tachinidae) and the Evolutionary Timescale of Tachinid Flies
Figure 7
Evolutionary timescale for Diptera inferred from a mitochondrial data set comprising 13 protein-coding genes and 2 ribosomal RNA genes.
Numbers at nodes indicate mean estimated divergence times (in mya) and node bars indicate 95% credibility intervals. Red circles indicate the three nodes used for calibration. The yellow circle indicates the hypothesised origin of tachinid flies. In the geological time scale: Pala indicates Palaeocene; Eoce indicates Eocene; Oligo indicates Oligocene; Mioc indicates Miocene; P indicates Pliocene; Q indicates Quaternary.
