Hello Sr, I will try to better explain my problem, and I really appreciate your time to help me with this issue. My study is a conventional ecomorph with linear and univariate measurements So... Some of my traits are linear measures that can and must be "corrected" by body size, such as tail

Hello all, My questions follows this succinct introduction: I have a data frame composed of: species, trait X values (means) and SE of trait X for each species; AND the phylogeny with branch length of the species. I would like to know if it is possible to create residuals of the distribution of
