Tree of 2244 butterfly species
Description
This tree was generated by Kawahara et al. (2023).
Usage
tree_butterfly
Format
A phylogeny with class "phylo". It is also a list. Compare with a normal phylo object, it has another data frame 'tree_butterfly$genus_family_root', which provides the root nodes information for every unique genus and family in the phylogeny. Such information can be used to insert new tips onto the phylogeny later.
