Taxonomy, phylogenies and quantitative traits of carnivora and herbivora
Description
This data set describes the taxonomic and phylogenetic relationships of 49 carnivora and herbivora species as reported by Garland and Janis (1993) and Garland et al. (1993). It also gives seven traits corresponding to these 49 species.
Usage
data(carniherbi49)
Format
carniherbi49
is a list containing the 5 following objects :
- taxo
is a data frame with 49 species and 2 columns : 'fam', a factor family with 14 levels and 'ord', a factor order with 3 levels.
- tre1
is a character string giving the phylogenetic tree in Newick format as reported by Garland et al. (1993).
- tre2
is a character string giving the phylogenetic tree in Newick format as reported by Garland and Janis (1993).
- tab1
is a data frame with 49 species and 2 traits: 'bodymass' (body mass (kg)) and 'homerange' (home range (km)).
- tab2
is a data frame with 49 species and 5 traits: 'clade' (dietary with two levels
Carnivore
andHerbivore
), 'runningspeed' (maximal sprint running speed (km/h)), 'bodymass' (body mass (kg)), 'hindlength' (hind limb length (cm)) and 'mtfratio' (metatarsal/femur ratio).
