Phylogeny of the birdwing butterflies radiation and palaeo-tectonic evolution of the Indomalayan-Australian Archipelago

Description:

Description: English: Dated Bayesian phylogeny of the birdwing butterflies radiation and palaeo-tectonic evolution of the Indomalayan-Australian Archipelago. Coloured squares on nodes indicate biogeographical location as in the inset map, with triangles indicating colonizations. A timescale is shown spanning the full evolutionary history of the group. Panels at the bottom include maps of the distribution of land and sea at respectively 25, 15 and 5 Myr ago sensu13,15. The asterisk next to terminal taxon names indicates those not figured. Pictures of birdwing butterflies made by Fabien Condamine. Maps drawn with PowerPoint by Fabien Condamine using various sources. Date: Published online: 02 July 2015. Source: Fabien L.
