⚠️There's a newer version (3.4.7) of this package.Take me there.

paleotree (version 2.4)

Paleontological and Phylogenetic Analyses of Evolution

Description

Analyzes, time-scales and simulates phylogenies of extinct/fossil lineages, along with calculation of diversity curves. Also fits likelihood models to estimate sampling rates from stratigraphic ranges.
