Description

This data set describes the phylogeny of carnivora as reported by Diniz-Filho et al. (1998). It also gives the body mass of these 19 species.

Usage

data(carni19)

Format

carni19 is a list containing the 2 following objects :

tre

is a character string giving the phylogenetic tree in Newick format.

bm

is a numeric vector which values correspond to the body mass of the 19 species (log scale).
