Their ancestors diverged from that lineage probably over 8 million years ago.

Molecular evidence suggests that the last common ancestor between humans and the remaining great apes diverged 4-8 million years ago.

Their ancestors diverged probably less than one million years ago (roughly around the early Ionian)

At that time, it was believed that the ancestors of humans had diverged from other apes 14 million years ago.

Their ancestors must thus have diverged as early as the Triassic, more than 200 million years ago.

The ancestors of early Indian and Javan rhino diverged 2-4 million years ago.

It has been almost 600 million years since human ancestors diverged from those of flies.

The last common ancestor of the Capripoxvirus and Suipoxvirus diverged 111,000 29,000 years ago.

The ancestors of all current species had diverged by the early Pliocene, around 4 million years ago.

Genetic studies have shown the ancestors of the numbat diverged from other marsupials between 32 and 42 million years ago, during the late Eocene.
