Table 4 Prior setting for calibration evidence for different calibration combinations. All values are given in Ma and prior distributions are given as mean and standard deviation (stdev). Normal (N) prior distributions are applied to the secondary calibration. Lognormal (logN) prior distributions are applied to each of the fossil-calibrated nodes and are constrained to be older than the highest bound of the fossil age (offset). Priors labelled ’none’ may be interpreted as uniform, uninformative priors
