[R-sig-phylo] add.random() (phytools) assumptions

Hi all, I have been experimenting with different methods for adding unsampled species to a tree and I have a theoretical question regarding the function add.random() in phytools. It seems that the function adds new tips, one by one, by grafting a new branch into a random location, with uniform

[R-sig-phylo] Measures of dissimilarity between phylogenetic trees

Hi everyone, I am simulating characters evolving in a phylogetic tree under a number of models and using those characters to build another tree using parsimony. I would like, then, to measure how similar are the recovered trees when compared to the original ones, taking only topology into
