Hi Everyone.

I'm trying to look at the association between a discrete binary predictor
(Latitude: Colorado/Ecuador) and a continuous response (species richness).

My phylogeny is a 50% majority rule consensus tree made in MrBayes. The
tree has polytomies and is not ultrametric.

I've found the methods below for looking at the influence of a discrete
binary trait on richness, but I'm not sure if my tree is suitable or if
there is a better approach.

1) Diversitree package BiSSE
2) Caper package using MacroCAIC

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You.


Brian
