prepR4pcm: An R Package for Preparing Data and Trees for Phylo- genetic Comparative Methods

2026-06-17

Abstract excerpt

1. Phylogenetic comparative methods require species names in a trait dataset to match tip labels in a phylogenetic tree. Yet this apparently simple prerequisite is often one of the most fragile steps in a comparative workflow. Names may differ because of, for example, formatting, taxonomic revisions, synonyms, or spelling errors. If these differences are resolved informally, species can be lost from analyses, and...
