This R package provides data and analyses that accompany the paper

• Martin R. Smith (2019), Bayesian and parsimony approaches reconstruct informative trees from simulated morphological datasets, Biological Letters, in review.

It incorporates data from:

• Congreve, C. R., and J. C. Lamsdell. 2016. Implied weighting and its utility in palaeontological datasets: a study using modelled phylogenetic matrices. Palaeontology, 59:447–462. doi:10.1111/pala.12236.

• Congreve, C. R., and J. C. Lamsdell. 2016. Data from: Implied weighting and its utility in palaeontological datasets: a study using modelled phylogenetic matrices. Dryad Digital Repository, doi:10.5061/dryad.7dq0j.

Some of these data are used in the Quartet package.

Equivalent data and analyses from data simulated by O’Reilly et al. (2016) are available at [https://github.com/ms609/OReillyEtAl2016].
