“…As a result, vicariant speciation simultaneously started at this time and acted on each isolated island population (c.f., Kodandaramaiah, 2011). The age of MRCA at 1.55 ± 0.15 Ma serves as a robust date for geological event calibration, signifying the isolation of each island within the Ryukyu Islands (c.f., Osozawa, Kanai, et al, 2021;Osozawa, Ito, et al, 2021, Izu-Bonin Islands). Based on Osozawa et al (2012), I have already applied this calibration date as tMRCA of insect clades (Osozawa et al, 2013;Osozawa, Fukuda, et al, 2016;Osozawa, Kanai, et al, 2021;Osozawa, Oba, et al, 2015;Osozawa, Ogino, et al, 2016;Osozawa, Sato, et al, 2017;Osozawa, Shiyake, et al, 2017;Osozawa, Takáhashi, et al, 2015, 2022.…”
