A multilocus phylogeny reveals deep lineages within African galagids (Primates: Galagidae)

Table 2 Evolutionary rate calibration constraints (in millions of years)

Divergence	Offset	95% prior distribution	Mean	Fossil	Reference	Age
1. Homo/Pan	5.0	10.0	2.5	Ardipithecus	[136]	5.2
				Orrorin	[137]	6.0
				Sahelanthropus	[138, 139]	6.0-7.0
2. Homo/Pongo	12.5	18.0	2.75	Sivapithecus	[140]	≈12.5
3. Crown Catarrhini	21.0	33.9	6.43	Morotopithecus	[141]	>20.6
3. Crown Catarrhini	21.0	33.9	6.43	Victoriapithecus	[142, 143]	≈19.0
4. Theropithecus/Papio	3.5	6.5	1.5	Theropithecus	[144, 145]	≈3.5
5. Crown Lorisoidea	36.9	47.0	5	Saharagalago	[39]	>36.9
				Wadilemur	[40]	≈35.0

Calibration points were treated as translated-lognormal distributions with hard offset and soft maximum bounds. Standard deviation was set at 0.5 for all nodes.
