Table S1. List of studies using autocorrelated relaxed-clock methods and published in Royal Society journals, complete as of 19 November, 2008. The studies are ranked by the approximate taxonomic level of the data being analysed.

(2005) performed separate analyses of two data sets in their paper; these are treated separately in this survey. a
