Abstract
⺠A genomic dataset of 25 nuclear loci is generated for squamate reptiles. ⺠Phylogeny is estimated using parsimony, maximum likelihood, and Bayesian methods. ⺠Dates of divergence are estimated with fossil calibrations using r8s and BEAST. ⺠The same methods are compared with mitochondrial ND2 data. ⺠The dating methods are evaluated using subsamples of the 25 nuclear loci.
