Hi Maria.
I got part of the way to doing this with the function Map.Overlap (not
to be confused with the related function, map.overlap) in phytools which
should compute the quantities given in Table 2 of Huelsenbeck et al. The
rest, I think should be straightforward to do - but I never got around
to it. I will try but you may be able to figure it out yourself using
Map.Overlap.
All the best, Liam

Dear colleagues,
According to help, SIMMAP allows to test correlated evolution between two
discrete traits with more than two levels
(http://www.simmap.com/v1.0/pgs/hpgs/correlatedchars.html). Huelsenbeck et al.
(2003: Stochastic Mapping of Morphological Characters. Syst.Biology,
52(2):131–158) described this measure of association as D.
I do not have Mac, so I would like to know is there in R a function to evaluate
D and its p value?
Thank you!
Best wishes,
Maria Ghazali
