1. Ancestral state reconstruction of ecological transitions in Gymnophthalmini.
Ancestral state reconstruction of ecological transitions in Gymnophthalmini. Colors represent (A) the spatial shift in ecological categories from epigeal (E) to fossorial (F), in green, and (B) the temporal shift in ecological categories from diurnal (D) to nocturnal (N), in blue. The colors in pie charts represent the proportional likelihood of that given ecological state at the node; the colors in the tips represent the ecological state of each species. Phylogenetic hypothesis and branch lengths modified from Zheng and Wiens (2016), with the addition of S. catimbau as a sister-species of N. ablephara, following Pellegrino et al. (2011) and Laguna and Yonenaga-Yassuda (2011). Branch length scale represents millions of years from present (time=0).
