Fig. 14 in A holistic approach to inventory the diversity of mobilid ciliates (Protista: Ciliophora: Peritrichia)

Fig. 14 Chronogram of the order Mobilida based on nuclear 18S rRNA gene sequences. The 95% credibility intervals of divergence time estimates are shown as blue bars at nodes. Divergence times were estimated with the RelTime algorithm, maximum likelihood method, GTR + I + Γ5 evolutionary model, local clock, and four calibration points. Note that the last common ancestor of the order Mobilida very likely emerged about 631‒415 Ma when most of today's landmass was included in the supercontinent Gondwana. Diversification of mobilids into urceolariids and trichodinids as well as the early radiation of both groups was completed before ca. 180
