Dear friends,

I guess this is as much a philosophical question as it is methodological. I
want to estimate the rate of evolution of a trait (e.g. using the
fitContinuous function), but the trait has low phylogenetic signal (e.g.
lambda close to 0). Does it make sense to use fitContinuous on a trait
evolving like that?

Thanks for your input.

Karla
