Simulate Discrete Character Data along Phylogenetic Trees R package MorphSim version 1.2.1 CRAN Task View: Phylogenetics (https://CRAN.R-project.org/view=Phylogenetics) Tools to simulate morphological traits along phylogenetic trees with branch lengths representing evolutionary distance or time. Includes functions for visualizing evolutionary processes along trees and within morphological character matrices. Methods are described in Mulvey et al. (2026) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.70326>.
