Jetz (2012) phylogenetic tree (subset)

A pruned version of the BirdTree Stage 2 maximum clade credibility tree (Hackett backbone), containing ~660 species from the Corvoidea and allied passerine families. Deliberately smaller than avonet_subset (~920 species) so that reconciliation produces unresolved species suitable for reconcile_augment(). Tip labels use underscores.

Usage

tree_jetz

Format

An object of class phylo (from the ape package).
