Divergence times in demosponges were analysed under the fossilized-birth-death model in BEAST 2.4.3.

The files are organized in the following folders: data, XML, precooked_runs, figures.

The data folder includes the alignment as well as the sequences for all new mt genomes used in this paper. The XML folder includes the xml file generated by BEAST BEAUTi to run BEAST. In addition we provide the shell skript for cluster analyses. The precooked_runs folder include all outputfiles of the run by means of log files which can be analysed in TRACER and raw .trees files. The figure folder contains a summary of outputfigures.
