Extended Data Fig. 7

The configuration presented here is the maximum shift credibility (MSC) configuration for an analysis that expected 15 rate shifts under the prior. Darker red colors depict relatively fast rates, while darker blue colors depict relatively slow rates. Rate shifts along branches are denoted with filled, black circles and assigned identifying numbers. Shifts in speciation rate are estimated to have occurred on the branches leading to the following 27 clades: 1.) Dinematichthyidae, 2.) Apogonidae (to the exclusion of Pseudamia), 3.) Gobiidae and Oxudercidae, 4.) Solenostomus, 5.) Parupeneus and Pseudopeneus (in Mullidae), 6.) Ariomma, Nomeidae and Stromateidae, 7.) Mastacembelidae, 8.) the clade defined by Scophthalmidae and Soleidae, 9.) Carangidae (to the exclusion of Seriola), 10.) Pseudocrenilabrinae (in Cichlidae), 11.) Pomacentridae, 12.) the clade defined by Gobiesocidae and Dactyloscopidae, 13.) Poeciliidae, 14.) the clade defined by Scorpididae and Terapontidae, 15.) Labridae, 16.) Sciaenidae, 17.) the clade defined by Nemipteridae and Sparidae, 18.) Tetraodontidae, 19.) Chaetodontidae, 20.) Acanthuridae (to the exclusion of Prionurus and Naso), 21.) Anthiadinae and Epinephelidae, 22.) darters (Etheostomatinae), 23.) the clade defined by Nototheniidae and Channichthyidae, 24.) Sebastes, 25.) the clade defined by Trichodontidae and Psychrolutidae, 26.) the clade defined by Stichaeidae and Zoarcidae and 27.) the clade defined by Bothrocara and Lycodes concolor (in Zoarcidae). Shifts labelled with blue rather than black numbers are estimated to have occurred by 16 of the 23 BAMM analyses conducted in this study. Although shift number 20 and shift number 26 are labelled in black, the vast majority of BAMM analyses predicted a rate shift in nearby branches leading to slightly more inclusive clades (specifically Acanthuridae to the exclusion of Naso, and all of Lycodinae, respectively).
