  1. Yule (pure-birth), constant rate Birth-Death (crBD), diversity-dependent linear speciation + extinction (DDL + E), and diversity-dependent exponential speciation + extinction (DDE + E) models were run. Maximum likelihood parameter estimates of speciation rate (λ) and extinction rate (μ) from each model. All models were run on two sets of missing taxa, 22 and 50
