Hi All, I am going to suggest that when people want any sort of "phylogenetic residuals" they do some checking on their own to try to verify what, exactly, they are getting. Here's one check you can do. Compute phylogenetically independent contrasts for two traits. Perform a regression (through the origin, of course) of one trait on the other. Save the residuals. Compare them with the "phylogenetic residuals" you get from some other program that does a PGLS regression (not with any transformation of the branch lengths). Let us know what you find!
