The function add.species.to.genus may do what you want. It adds a single species to the group defined by the MRCA of members of a genus, according to multiple criteria (randomly and so on). It can add only one species at a time, so you will need to write a for loop or something to iterate over the species that you�d like to add.

I tried to use add.everywhere function to add terminal branches. I have 167 terminal taxa inside each of the 7 genera on my tree. Basically, I just wanted to add some dozens of specimens to the end of each branch, but I don't find a way to do it. Is there any tool that would allow me to do this? Like adding 30 branches to 'Phal', adding 25 to 'Phat', etc. Thanks in advance. -- Institut des Sciences de l'Evolution UMR5554, CNRS, IRD, EPHE Universit� de Montpellier Place Eug�ne Bataillon 34095 Montpellier Cedex 05 France Email: sergio.ferreira-card...@umontpellier.fr Tel: +33 (4 ) 67 14 46 52 [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
