  1. Data are shown for three separate runs with priors set according to two, four and six divergence events. Bayes factors (BF) in italics represent favoured model. Asterisk indicates positive evidence (i.e. 2loge(BF) is between 2–5) for favoured model [45]. Two asterisks indicate very strong evidence (NB where posterior probability = 0, support calculation effectively becomes 2loge(∞)). Pairwise comparison were made between all scenarios under each sub-heading (in italics). →0 indicates tending to zero
