  1. Estimates were calculated using combined data sets including slow and fast evolving opsin copies. These results were obtained using a prior distribution for the age of the ingroup node (root age) of either 70 (± 70) or 100 (± 100) Ma, a rate of evolution of 0.002 substitutions per site per million years and brownmean value of 0.02.
