  1. Speciation (s), extinction (x) and dispersal (d) rates between the two biogeographical regions on either side of the Bering Strait (A, Pacific Ocean; B, Atlantic Ocean, including most of the Arctic). Complete asymmetric model and different scenarios of state-independent and state-dependent diversification (rates constrained to be equal), and unidirectional and bidirectional dispersal were tested: 1) asymmetric model; 2) asymmetric speciation, state-independent extinction and dispersal rates; 3) asymmetric extinction, state-independent speciation and dispersal rates; 4) symmetric parameters; 7) Sink-sink system [86]. Log-likelihood, Akaike information criteria (AIC) and log-likelihood ratio test (P) are also provided for comparison between models. Dispersal and local extinction parameters estimated by DEC models are also shown [88, 89].
