  1. The estimated values of the time of expansion were obtained using three different methods (LSWH, MPH and ABC). The estimated values of MSH and DH were obtained using ABC. The numbers inside the parentheses denote the upper and lower limits of the 95% confidence interval for the parameter or homoplasy measure. The theoretical estimates of MSH and DH were estimated using the values of τ and θ 1 obtained using ABC and the Eqs. (24) and (17)
