1 Source trees used to construct the neopterygian supertrees Our supertrees, provided as text files (change the.txt extension to.tre for use in phylogenetic packages) are available for both the paleontological timescaling approach (Dataset S4) and the molecular timescaling approach (Dataset S5). These supertrees were constructed on the basis of the source trees listed below: Alvarado-Ortega 2004 Fig.10 (1) Alvarado-Ortega & Brito 2011 (2) Alvarado-Ortega & Espinosa-Arrubarrena 2008 Fig. 8 part 2 (3) Alvarado-Ortega et al Fig. 8a (4) Arratia 2013 (5) Arratia 1994 Fig. 9 (6) Arratia 1995 Fig. 1b (7) Arratia 1995 Fig. 1c (7) Arratia 1996 Fig. 4 (8) Arratia 1996 Fig. 5 (8) Arratia 1996 Fig. 6a (8) Arratia 1997 Fig. 100 (9) Arratia 1997 Fig. 101 (9) Arratia 1997 Fig. 102 (9) Arratia 1999 Fig. 19 (10) Arratia 1999 Fig. 20 (10) Arratia 1999 Fig. 21 (10) Arratia 1999 Fig. 22 (10) Arratia 2000a Fig. 20 (11) Arratia 2000a Fig. 21 (11) Arratia 2000b Fig. 21 (12) Arratia 2008 Fig. 7 (13)
