Fig. S1. Concentration of medicinal plants in phylogenetic “hot nodes” for the categories of medical conditions. Blue and orange bars show percentage of 

total and medicinal flora included in hot nodes, respectively. Green bars show percentage gain in medicinal plants included in hot nodes. Gain is the difference 

between the number of medicinal plants in hot nodes, and the number of medicinal plants expected in a random sample of the same size. (A) Patterns based 

on the average from analyses from within each of the three floras (Nepal, New Zealand, and Cape of South Africa). (B) Patterns based on the average from 

pairwise analyses among the three floras. Comparisons were carried out on a combined phylogenetic tree of the three floras to test whether hot nodes from 

one region can predict medicinal plant use from the other two.

Fig. S2. Phylogenetic overlap between the medicinal floras of Nepal and Cape of South Africa. The phylogenetic tree shown is the combined tree of the floras 

from the three regions reconstructed under ML criterion with RAxML 7.2.8. Light blue branches are lineages that are not used in ethnomedicine in eitherofthe 

two areas. Dark blue branches are lineages used in ethnomedicine in Nepal and red ones are used in the Cape of South Africa. As shown, the medicinal floras of 

the two regions are found in the same lineages on the tree.

areas. Dark blue branches are lineages used in ethnomedicine in Nepal and red ones are used in New Zealand. As shown, the medicinal floras of the two

Information shown for the three medicinal floras and 13 categories of conditions. Results were acquired with the “comstruct” command in PHYLOCOM v4.1. 

MPD, mean phylogenetic distance within each sample; NRI, net relatedness index. P values in bold are the ones that remain significant after a Bonferroni 

correction of the α-significance level. Note that in uncorrected data, 1/20 significant comparisons may be spurious (type I errors), but the Bonferroni correction 

adjusts the α-threshold so the study-wide error rate remains at 0.05.

Using the option “nodesig” in PHYLOCOM v4.1, nodes on the phylogenetic tree with significantly more medicinal plants than in the rest of the phylogeny 

were recovered. The first column of data shows the percentage of the total flora included in those nodes. The second column shows the percentage of the 

medicinal flora included in the nodes. The third column shows the percentage of gain in medicinal plants included in hot nodes, compared with what would be 

expected by chance. Results are presented for the medicinal floras of Nepal, New Zealand, and the Cape of South Africa, and for the 13 categories of 

conditions. Each figure is the average of the results from the three regions. All P values remain significant after a Bonferroni correction of the α-significance 

level. Note that in uncorrected data, 1/20 significant comparisons may be spurious (type I errors), but the Bonferroni correction adjusts the α-threshold so the 

study-wide error rate remains at 0.05.

Figures are the average from the six tests to investigate the extent to which hot nodes of each region (source region) can predict the medicinal plant use in 

the other two regions (target regions). The first column of data shows the percentage of the total flora of the target regions included in the hot nodes of the 

source region, using the option “nodesig” in PHYLOCOM v4.1. The second column shows the percentage of medicinal plants of the target regions found in 

those nodes. The third column shows the percentage of gain in medicinal hits achieved by sampling those nodes, compared with random sampling. Results are 

summarized for the medicinal floras of Nepal, New Zealand, and the Cape of South Africa, and for 13 categories of conditions. P value in bold is the one that 

remains significant after a Bonferroni correction of the α-significance level. Note that in uncorrected data, 1/20 significant comparisons may be spurious (type I 

errors), but the Bonferroni correction adjusts the α-threshold so the study-wide error rate remains at 0.05. N/A, not applicable
