Hi,

vegan::rrarefy() is the right way to do this.

However, I can't imagine, how to take 50 random individuals from a sample with less then 50 individuals. One doesn't know, what species would be collected in case of a larger sampling effort, R doesn't know either. I would suggest doing this only for samples with more individuals, or taking a smaller number of individuals.

Hope that helps,
Vit

By the way, I think I could use (if Zoop tha name of the dataset)
rrarefy(Zoop, sample=50).
However, in this case it will not allow me since there are samples with zero
individuals.
Even if I delete those, there will be some with less than 50 indiv. But I would prefer to standardise effort for 50 individuals. This function, or at
least in this form, does not allow that.
