Supplementary material Note S1 Ancestral Reconstructed sequences and topology. The three reconstructed sequences are output following Ancetral sequence reconstruction (ASR) analysis in HyPhy (joint, marginal and sampled). As few differences occurred between the three different reconstructions we estimated number of different non-synonymous and synonymous substitutions between the mitogenome sequences of living freshwater eels and the ancestral reconstructions by averaging over all three reconstructed sequences. The ATP6 part of the sequences did not show any differences in estimated amino acid changes. The analysis was based on a GTR substitution model (the best fitted model estimated in HyPhy) and a topology identical to the one found in Jacobsen et al. (1) using a posterior threshold of 0.90 to determine pylogenetic relationships (see newick tree below). Stemonidium hypomelas was used as outgroup. Site-to-site variation was modeled using beta-gamma variation and three rate classes were used. Topology: (((((NC_006537,NC_006541),(((NC_006543,NC_006544),((NC_006545,(NC_006534,NC_006535)),NC_006539)),NC

GGTGGTGGGATGTTAATTATTTGTGGGTGGCTTTATTGCTTACTCTTTTTGTTGTTCTTGAGTTAACTCGTGGTCGTAGTCGTGGGGCTTTGCGAGCAATT Note S2 For the endemic New Zealand eel (A. differenbachii) the spawning migration was estimated to average 3000 km. This was based on the assumption of a spawning ground situated between New Caledonia and Fiji, as proposed by larval migration route modeling (2) and further confirmed by studies employing popup tags for tracking migrating adult eels (3, 4). Estimates of age at metamorphosis were based on studies investigating increments in the Sr/Ca ratio in the otoliths. When several estimates were available the average among all studies were used. However, for the giant mottled eel (A. marmorata) that shows possible population structure (5), only estimates from the North Pacific population (including Japan, Taiwan, Philippines, Sulawesi) were used in order to match the sampling locality of the mitogenome sequence (6). Further analyses were conducted in order to assess the robustness of the results considering 1) earlier estimates of migratory distances (7) and 2) the possibility that age of metamorphosis in temperate (A. japonica, A. Anguilla, A. rostra, A. dieffenbachia and A. australis ssp.) freshwater eels, that all show large migratory loops, is underestimated. The latter could be a result of colder and less productive environments that potentially can lead to decreased growth and thereby decreased rate of otolith increments (8, 9). In total, we conducted correlation analyses (linear correlation or spearman rank; Table 3) between the observed genotype changes and four other datasets (Table 4). The first two considered earlier estimates of migratory distances by Aoyama et al. (7). They provided minimum and maximum estimates for five different species of freshwater eels; A. celebesensis, A. japonica, A. borneensis, A. anguilla and A. rostrata. Thus we replaced the average estimates presented in the paper (Table 1) for these species and reassessed the correlations. Furthermore, we calculated the average between both studies (7, 10) and used that for analyses. To assess the robustness of the results in case of an underestimation of the age of metamorphoses in temperate species, we increased the estimated ages for these species by either 20 or 40%. Correlation analyses were conducted for all above datasets and the results were overall identical with the result in the paper. The only major difference was that distance shows a significant positive correlation with number of amino acid changes at the five candidate positions when using the average distances from Aoyama et al. and Aoyama (7, 10). Overview of these datasets and results can be found in Table S3 and S4. Finally it should be mentioned that information was available for larval phase duration in thirteen species, whereas information on migratory distance was available for only eight species (Table 1, paper). Thus the higher statistical power associated with the former trait may be correlated to the larger sample size. Note 3 To evaluate whether the two examined life-history related traits also are correlated when correcting for the phylogenetic relationship, we conducted a comparative analysis of independent contrasts (CAIC) (11). This test calculates the phylogenetic independent contrast of two continues traits like the ones examined in the paper. In this way phylogenetic relatedness will not bias the result, making it possible to assess whether the two traits are truly correlated in freshwater eels. We conducted the CAIC test as implemented in the R-package ‘CAPER’ (12). We used the ‘comparative.data’ function to calculate contrasts that are depicted in Figure 1B (main paper). Subsequently these contrasts were further evaluated using the ‘crunch’ function. This function is similar to the CAIC test described in Purvis and Rambaut (11). We used the estimated trait-values from Table 1 (main paper) and used a phylogenetic tree similar to Jacobsen et al. (1) using a posterior threshold of 0.90 to determine phylogenetic relationships (Tree A below). We also analyzed the data using the original tree without taken the posterior into account (Tree B below). Both analyses showed significant linear relationships as evaluated using the ‘crunch’ function; A) adjusted R2 = 0.8802 (P=0.0003526), B) adjusted R2 = 0.9016 (P=0.0001939).
