phyloregion

An R package for biogeographic regionalization (the classification of geographical areas in terms of their biotas) and macroecology. With macroecological datasets of ever increasing size and complexity, phyloregion offers the possibility of handling and executing very large scale analysis of biogeographic regionalization. It also allows fast and memory efficient analysis of standard conservation measures such as phylogenetic diversity, phylogenetic endemism, evolutionary distinctiveness and global endangerment. phyloregion can run on any operating system (Mac, Linux, Windows or even high performance computing cluster) with R 3.6.0 (or higher) installed.

Installation

phyloregion is available from the Comprehensive R Archive Network, so you can use the following line of code to install and run it:

install.packages("phyloregion")

Alternatively, you can install the development version of phyloregion hosted on GitHub. To do this, you will need to install the devtools package. In R, type:

if (!requireNamespace("devtools", quietly = TRUE)) 
    install.packages("devtools") 
devtools::install_github("darunabas/phyloregion")
